A cool new board for Mr. Jumbo Karakuchi. A 5′6″ Twinkie with smoke tint and smoke fins. Im glad to see Mr. Karakuchi riding something other than a chipped shortboard. He is in love again…

Here’s Yasu 5′6″ Twinkie 5 fin. green/yellow marble pigment bottom with black deck pinline. Gloss/Polish of course! As you can see from my previous post the difference in the outline of the new 5′8″ fish and the Twinkie model. By far this model has been the most popular of all the shortboard models i offer from the Square Label. I wanted to keep the same dynamics as far as surfablity but wanted to add a new look to the lineup. keep an eye out for the new 5′8″. Have not come up with a model name yet so any suggestions will be considered.

today i shaped i 5′8″ keel twin fin which may be added to the Square Lable lineup in the near future. i added more width in the nose with a less drawn tail outline. widened the buttcrack swallow tail to 10.5 inches. the finish dimensions are 5′8″.18″.21″.16 7/8″.10 1/2″.2 1/2″. i love my 5′6″ Twinkie but i wanted a board that will flow and carry more for the even smaller days. rather than ride i bigger Twinkie, i wanted to increase board volume in the nose and tail outline. not as steep rails as the Twinkie but a more rounder rail to maximize forgiveness while on rail in small/weak surf. keep an eye out for finished pictures when i get it back from the glassing.

Been riding the new SPD-2 model for the past few weeks and it has been working out well. A slightly more flared nose outline with more rocker and less vee. Faster with a tightier turning radius.

waves been great all summer long. here’s the car loaded with my wifes 5′6″ Twinkie and a 9′8″ Deluxe for me.
