| 153741 | 6778 | Shaper thread (show us what you are shaping) | 16 | Driftwood | Aug 3, 2019 | 2019-08-03T09:43:54-0400 | Bruce, 1) that is a hot looking fin! and 2) Glad to see you working on stingers. I haven't shaped one in a while but got turned on to a friend's mid seventies G&S and then went through phase building a few and riding vintage ones when I could find them. I think that a well conceived mid-lenghth (for my build, that's 7' to say 7'5"") stinger can be such an incredibly fun board to surf in a variety of conditions. Flat to vee, old school rails, bit of a beak and lowish moderate rocker. Was building them in eps/epoxy and just loving the combination of front-foot speed and drive and using the tail to carve pretty heavy turns. Glorious at times. This may have been the best of the bunch. Wings and box pretty far up. Despite my lack of sophistication, this was one fun board. Image processing. Refresh page to view Image processing.
