I believe the idea is faster water flow towards the center of the waste on the board and easier turning. Check out the fire wires newest board at this link.

I was wondering if giving a knee board a foam reduction diet about the waste between the ankles and the knees if we could get some interesting performance out of a board like the cornice surfboard by firewire? Basically a peanut shaped board.

The Lis fish would be a good board to start shaping on. Just troll the swaylocs site someone has a link to a vintage surfboard shaping manual with the original Steven Lis fish measurements plus more discussions on how to shape a fish than you could shake a bar of wax at. Modern knee boards have the ...

I wonder how the split tail concept work on a fish board. Would the twin pins make this board loser or would you just not get the hole effect of the split? Would the slight bevel running along the bottom rails from the nose towards the belly have positive effect or negative effect? This could be the...

I was thinking of shaping a fish for my self and keeping the design closer to the Lis fish but push the keels up the board a little further and keep the traditional plywood keels. Ma be pull in the tail just a bit. I am thinking of calling my own garage built board logo Black Fish Project in honer o...

Wow dude nice video work. Really crisp images.

Thank you for the tip I will be watchful for that as I am doing the exercises.

Do you want a good training work out but don't have much time to spend in a gym??? I have started out swinging kettle bells as a new exercise routine. I borrowed my brothers kettle bell program and bought my first kettle bell to work out with. The things that attracted me to this workout over the p9...

To sum up bonzer's since we mount the fins farther up from the tail and our boards tend to run wider than most short boards the bonzer runner or runners should be taller than what is on a stand up board to be effective. The bonzer will make a smother bit longer turn than a thruster. Any knee boarder...

Here is the basic fin setup on a bonzer that I have researched. bonzer fin setup: · Runners are toed in at 1/4 inches. · In from rail is 1.5 inches. · Space between rear and front fins is 1.5 · Over lap between front and rear is 0 to 1/2 inch. · Cant is 20 to 23 degries. · Rear fin is taller and lon...

I have found two examples of bonzers on the net that is particularly interesting. The first one is a little green shoe board off of swayloc's site and the other example is actually a surf cyak with the fins pushed forward simuller to a modern kneelo. http://www2.swaylocks.com/forums/shoe-kneeboardsu...

This is one of the best posts I have seen in a long time. Usually you can find tons of information on shaping stand up boards. Sometimes conflicting ideas and some of it just flawed however not that much on shaping kneelo's. We have such an individualized sport that you cant just pick up an off of t...

I just found out about the c drive fins. The right up sounds impressive.
I think I would put these fins on just about anything I build.
I think I would use an eps blank if I can find one wide enough. I should be able to make it a little thinner.

I wonder how a 6 ft body board would handle with the right botom shaping and a quad fin setup?

Isn't a krozier slab sort of a simmons type shape with the tail and ma be the nose pulled in a bit?
