Haven't got a photo of the bottom with the teardrop concave.. but you can kinda see the rocker..
It's very lively with the 2+1 fin setup but rock solid with a 8" single fin...
I've had great success hanging 10 with the Don NR, super stable nose rides, with me @ 80kg..
The volume and low rocker means I can catch even the smallest waves. With the fins swapped for a 2+1 with 7" centre fin, a good 3-4ft softish beach break wave is fun, the rear rails of the board are quite hard, and it holds well in a steeper wave, and releases well off the top. Takes a few sessions to get used to the volume, but great on softer waves. Has enough weight to it, and is glassed strong. The Torq Horseshoe has a similar rocker, but less volume in the rails, it would be a bit more of a handful at 9'3 and soft rails, but work probably work better as a single fin. Here's a link to a video of Dutch Longboarder, Anne Albers, Surfing in Pavones, Costa Rica, on a Torq Horseshoe..
I plan on purchasing a Torq Chopper midlength with a 2+1 setup for waves which are a bit bigger or powerful.
