Twinzer

5’8” TO 6’6”

The Twinzer! Anything a twin fin can do, this can do better. Wil Jobson created this original fin design over 30 years ago and he spent some time down in Oregon and left us with our heads spun round about the efficiency and thoughtfulness of this design. The smaller leading fin organises the water flow so the back fin can operate in clean water, much like a jib sail fills the mainsail on a sailboat or drafting behind a vehicle on the highway. 
They absolutely sing on a wall and are far more positive than a twinny, meaning you can surf the board harder without spinning out and still have that rad skatey feel that makes twins so good. Fin placement is absolutely crucial for twinzers and is the probable reason you don't see more of them.  I router and set the fins into the board so there's no fin fillet and a bulletproof attachment to the board. 
This model is somewhere inbetween fish and shortboard and is such a fantastic small wave weapon. I cannot recommend this design enough--it takes the fast, free feeling of the twin fin and adds horsepower and positive grip to the equation. You can square off bottom turns and go vertical yet still overpower and blow out the fins for that great drifting feel at the end of a turn. Best at 5'5" to 6' and around 20" wide.
