Monco, is that a fish? What is the measure of the board?

Mmmm... I like singlefins but could you tell me at about what measure of wave can tolerate? Are you talking about an egg specifically?

it's sort of a fish, although strictly not because 6'4 is a bit long for a fish. it's also a tri-fin and a true fish is twin finned. anyone know the real definition of an actual old-school proper fish?

i believe that it is all in interpretation. for me, i think it should be 20 wide or more, twin glass ons with ply core, deep and curved swallow tail, above 6 or 7 inches between the points.

of course, its only my interpretation, so anybody feel free to object.
