That’s a hard question to answer. As for what works best.. what works for me and my location might be trash for you and your waves. With out knowing what setup your running I can’t give you a definite answer but what we have been running has been boards with a rounded tail and a 2 + 1 setup with a single concave running into a 4 channel through the fin cluster. All channels toe in with the fins at 1/8 degree. Channels can be a personal preference and I’m not a huge channel guy but my mates are. I can get the same drive and hold with different fins or clusters. Are you shaping this board yourself or have a shaper local?

@@Shrednaught haha, channels are tricksy and that’s why I’m asking the wiser men. For context, I live in South Africa and mostly surf along the Eastern Cape and around Cape Town. Hitting some of our cranking point breaks and I am progressing towards heavier beachies that really throw some big barrels. I’m sticking clear of the additional stabiliser fin so far and mostly alternating between keel fins and as it’s called here tweel fins which are like keels with a wide base but give more pivot and release thanks to a steeper leading edge and more of a hook in the rake. Kinda like HP Keels. Works well with the keels on the inside edge for point breaks to knife into the face on takeoff but also to release and pivot when hitting the top! I bought my first twinnie second hand but I can get hold of the shaper [GONZO] who also lives on the East Coast near JBay. It’s modelled on the fiji performance twin that Toryn Martyn rides but squashed down to 6’0” - and I’m keen to see what it’s like stretched out as a mid length (6’8” - 7’2”) Maintain the low entry rocker on the nose and the rounded tail; I’m also wondering how far up the channels should go on the longer board. Haha, so many factors, I really just want to focus on one or two elements to tweak on the next iteration - sheesh gathered already so much going on with these twin pin channel bottoms but it’s so much fun to ride!

Hey, great video!! Super helpful. I had a few questions before I start building my first board. ( The video I'm referencing is kzitem.info/news/bejne/zJVt1Hx-f4OpnqA&ab_channel=Shrednaught for the questions below.) What's the advantage (apart from different colours) of doing a tail and deck patch vs doing 2 full layers of glass on the top and bottom? If it's just a weight thing is there that much of a difference in weight between the two methods that makes doing patches worth it? (Also would there be a significant strength difference between patches vs 2 layers of glass). The second question is what's the difference between putting the fin boxes in before vs after glassing? As I have seen some videos where the fin boxes are put in before the glassing and some are put in after (generally with single fin longboards). If you put the fin boxes in before glassing shouldn't you put the leash plug in at the same time? Sorry if these are newbie questions. Keep up the great videos!
