Hi Dave,
I tested the Hull Keel Twin or as I like to think of it, (decaying wooden ironing board) on the weekend at a little place between the Pass and wategoes. I guess the surf was about 4ft and pretty much perfect.
The board looks like it should be really loose but it goes nothing like what you expect. I found that I could draw really long powerful lines and get quite vertical on it. It seemed to hold its rail very well, due to the fins being right at the very back of the board.
When i understood that the board is not a fast trimming board due to the V through the centre, I made the faster sections with ease by surfing it like a normal shortboard. Quite an experience riding it I can tell you.
Definitely worth riding as you can have a lot of fun with it.
Once the V is tweaked a bit to allow faster trimming...which i understand you have already done, will be a great little board to play around with.
Catch you in the water.
