nice job

that looks hot lacey

just gotta con dogmans bitch to get something like that little number as her prize board from dale

I really like the planshape of that Lacey.

How wide is it at 12" from tail?

I reckon the more pulled in tail is the go!

Sorry Lacey buts NICE

can't be the worlds best cos its missing a fin.......

3 vs 4:

Ridden quads to death, worked for a present renowned quad shaper Tripper, drank beer at my house with the guy who has relentlessly pushed them for 25 years. BMcKee. Had Lunch with Mr 3 and Mr 4, that was interesting.

Nearly every board I had for the last 5 or so years had the Multifin Tri-Quad set up (Tri or Quad) as per McKee's formulas.

The result of all of this for me: Back to Thrusters. What did I learn? That big front fins and smaller back fins are not necessarily the best set up and are mostly necessary on boards set up as quads incorrectly. 4 fins of the same size worked the best for me. Quads are faster no doubt but lack the release in some parts of the wave when you want it. Horses for courses.

Heard all this talk about quads not working on some parts of the wave but i am not feeling it, paticularly on a sup and never felt it on a tow board.

Each to there own........

Looks great Lacey.

Great tail shape and width. Nice work bypassing the finbox in the rear (they're a longboard thing).

Do you get them cheaper if you just use the left over paint from the stairs railing?

Can you stop clogging up Dale's shapping machine queue now ... please.

hey casso, it's a yellow tint. super happy with after this morning. all the tinkering went to plan.just dropped into dale to tell him about mine and he showed me yours in the bay

Mate it really does look good and if it will floats me , I'd say I'll be ordering one.

On the fin issue knowing you this board is probably full of ping pong balls to keep the weight down I'd say leaving the rear box out would have had something to with saving weight and having one less fin.

if i get to noosa,sure i'll give her a go on it, good way to find if board suits

Lacey, do you know how it was glassed? Layers, weight (ounces) etc etc?
Are the DC's vacuum bagged?

Looks REALLY good!

5 fins - from a few posts up;

Billy Hamilton has been playing around with 5 fins for a while. He really rates it.

Personally I need that centre fin for fast down the line drive, on long point breaks. Give me 1 or 3 fins, never 2 (sorry MR), and rarely 4.
