Asymmetric bonzer

I’d been thinking about an asymmetric for years, then this years Sacred Craft kind of re-excited me… but i have always struggled with the concept for the waves we have. Most times I can’t have a board that is optimised to go only one way and most of the asymmetrics out there seem to be biased to forehand performance, so a longer straighter rail toe-side for better projected bottom turns and a shorter rounder planshape on the outside rail for coming off the top and for cutbacks. For me this was an issue, as backside I’d have to deal with a shorter curvier planshape. I have found I can turn harder off the bottom and top backside so have always been comfortable with a longer board & straighter rail.

So this asymmetric is an experiment, is isn’t the right way round in terms of those who are most expert in these designs. My idea simply takes the primary side of my favourite frontside and backside boards and joins them. So this is my 6’2” Riddler frontside and my 6’4” FreakFish backside… except for the fins. To add drive on the frontside bottom turn and compensate for that curvy planshape I am using my incut keel fin (LokBox) with a single bonzer feeder on the rail. Heelside its all straight forward FreakFish EVO6… I have never had a problem cutting back frontside with the FreakFish, infact it carves a turn as sharp as any, so that longer straighter rail will be no problem. Backside roundhouses should be ridiculously easy and with more drive.
