After watching this clip of Torren Martyn there was a bit of discussion between Swellnet staff on the merits of twinnies. Long time readers will know where I stand on twins; just too damn twitchy, lacking in extension, and loose coming out of turns. And yes, I know it's all about the feelz, but I wont be swayed, even if I am, once again, outnumbered and outvoted.

Anyhoo, Torren Martyn, Central America, twin fin.

Board seems pretty suited to the waves - I really wish I was there to share a few!

Could be a damn good description of oneself Stu: Damn twitchy, lacking in extension and loose!!

Here I am, projecting again.

But what about those twinnies, eh? Terrible in hollow waves...

I'm with you Stu - not a fan of 2 fins, but hey what ever floats your boat.
