Can someone give me a good example of a shortboard/fish hybrid? I'd also like to know if they meet qualifications AS a shortboard i.e. competitions.

Thanks for the perfect examples, now I have the exact idea of what they look like. Rounded off closer to the nose, and the obvious width difference.

How are those fish? They have way too much rocker to be a fish. And way too thin.

I agree they are a hybrid shortboard. But more a shortboard/egg/funboard hybrid.

rarely using it now though, probably like once or twice a month after the last incidence with a longboarder, made a huge crack along the rail, so going out with my cheapo 200bux fish instead... :P
