  • Torren Martyn in a short story about a long session in Indonesia.
    'The trip itself was a short spontaneous one to one of, if not my favourite, waves to visit. It's just one of those places that I really enjoy spending self time at; reading, thinking, early mornings and early nights - just simple living. I find the ocean there so unpredictable and mesmerising, it's one of those places you can sit and just about stare at the waves all day and never really know what's going to happen next'.

    I always regret not seeing the start of the wave. The take off on a little fish, always great art and the most interesting to see.

    That board moves so beautifully on the wave. No forced air revs, no stickers. Just the wave, surfer, and board all working in harmony.
    Stripping surfing back of all its ego.

      Agreed. Massive style, gets himself in the pocket, the nice big nose on that board allowing him to move forward in the tube and back on the face. I've been watching this guy's surfing everywhere and I feel like most of the guys on the ct couldn't do what he does half as well

I went from using big 6” MR 78 Originals with a nubster in the back center box and another nubster in the heel side back box to the newer 5 3/4” MR’s with the MR trailer in the back center and I think I’m liking it better. Still very fast, turny and drivey but I think has a broader range.

    Good surfing. Twins are faster because there’s no back fin,if that helps. And if you’re all fired up to get one just like his, you will end up with limited turning abilities in bowling waves until you get back on your thruster. Mark Richard fooled us back in the 80s. The trend continues.

    • @madsteeez
      @madsteeez 4 роки тому +3

      that's not why they are fast..
      they are fast because they are wide, especially in the tail. what's the slowest board? a narrow pintail. because it sinks in the back and drags. The fattest and widest is the fastest as long as you can hold its rail.. the fins have a minor influence too, but not the back fin. The side fins cause drag when you go straight. that's why thrusters want to be surfed rail to rail. going straight, you're faster taking off the side fins and going single fin

      @a-frames7249 2 роки тому

      Twins are fast loose and responsive, and flippen fun at that! The only thing limiting turning abilities will be the chunkiness of your rails! For example a traditional Fish may limit your turning ability to some degree, but it's a different way of surfing. The more modernised Fish, with thinner rails and pulled in tails, can do exactly what a thruster does, but just looser and FUUUUUN! (But thats just MY opinion based on two types of fish i surf, i'll still be your friend if you feel my opinion based on experience is of no merit to your experience) Have a nice day:)
