The kawaii Don is more of a longboard stlye don with a flater nose rocker but more in tail pluss added vee and a wider nose , great board for a short board surfer who struggles with the size of a normal longboard but still want to get out on the small days. You can trim , walk get a toe or 2 over the nose but it turns easy so really is a short boarders longboard. comes in any tail shape and a fin box and side bites , I made one for my wife and ride it a lot so much fun.Easier to carry down the beach plus fits into a smaller car.
The twin fin plus 1 has really taken off this summer , I have been riding one for the last 2 years going from wing swollow then adding four channels then to 2 channels without the wing but then the wing has come back. Then after getting owen , clint and finally alex on them they are just loving the speed and the way they turn and my glassers son kelly just rides them totaly no thrusters in his quiver in small and solid tubes. Flatish deck making it stable to paddle and keeping the volume at to the rail meaning more liters better wave catching. Come and have a talk to andy if ya keen.
Hi we will be closed this year from the 29 of july to the 1st of october as andy will be oversea`s testing out new designs and checking out what is happening oversea`s design wise with surfboards. He will still be on line so you can get hold of him through or follow or get him on his instagram page ajsurfshapes.
This passed year have been really looking at the twin fin design and have done lots of work on it, we started with a single wing swollow with a light single concave running into a double concave in a spiral vee, then later we added 4 channels in to the design giving it abit more grip ,then the wing got taken out and now final we are down to 2 channels no wing but the same bottom cotours but with a very slight vee in the nose . Fins have been moved back for more drive . Some guys are going for a stabalizer in the back so they can fix it up a bit. So now we have a really fast board that loves to be put on rail and turn , great for small waves up to 4 feet but can be made to ride bigger by changing the out line and putting the stabalizer in. Some have glass on fins or mainly using future plugs to handle the bigger fin size.
