This board reminds me of the CI “ Sashimi “ twin fin model from 1998. The only difference was the Sashimi had an FCS for a trailer fin. We had them when I was managing Emerald City Surf & Sport in San Diego. I had a 5’8” and it went so sic at north Jetty and Newbs south sunset cliffs. Much Aloha
Looks super fun! Imagine if the board was released the same time the film came out. I know CI's not hurting for board sales, but that would've been epic.
What sort of foam is Tom adding to his board, high-density foam or expanding foam? I like how he puts more volume in from rails and not on rails or middle, sort of like a concave step deck.
You can do that but will have more volume. If you are comfortable with more volume it will work great, if trying to keep the same you will want to size down as explained by Britt in this video or in the caption info above
The FishBeard is quite different. It will be better in smaller more scrappy waves due to the wider tail. The FreeScrubber will work in smaller surf but more ideal in fun to pretty good surf because the tail is more pulled in therefore would need more or a wave to get going
Oh poor Tom, stranded in Mexico, forced to surf a perfect Pt break all day long. While the rest of us Bastards are stuck indoors some place…… My heart bleeds for him… really
basically an MR twin?... love those twins...high performance, super loose and skatey... how would this differ than the ones MR is still making or some of those old school ones? Is it still skatey and fun?
I actually love the pivotal feel of those old boards and pumping them like crazy in the pocket... I feel like a lot of the MR style boards i rode were like that and lacked some drive and projection but were crazy fast and skatey if you knew how to gain speed on them... any input CI? I am really curious ab this board... thanks.
I'm curious if we are ever going to see a Britt Merrick Shapes & Designs logo. He deserves one.
He has one it's called al merricks channel islands
Have the board. Love it. Thanks for the fin suggestions as I had been wondering what other fins to use. But now realise all will work with it.
Rad, they will create different feels. Some will drive and hold more and some will loosen the board up some and provide more release.
@@cisurfboards I have the AMT and AMK. And have the EN in Futures. So I think I am covered for everything.
@@terenceingram7786 EN is a great fin, a nice in between those two
Will it work in average beach break conditions?

Goes on my to buy list 😊
That board looks rad. The fin placement seams to work good right at the wing. How far up from the tail is the wing?
This board is special! Had one for a while now first magic board I’ve had in a very long time
Unreal, stoked to hear this!
@@cisurfboards Enough of thefts! Brazilian surfers should leave the WSL and create their own league!.
I get mine in 5 days, never been this excited about a board! 🤙

Hey guys would be really cool if you made a board accessible to the public of one of the bat tail quads you have been making with Dane !
This model looks extremely fun! What is your take on ordering this model a little longer than my everyday shortboard?
You can do that but will have more volume. If you are comfortable with more volume it will work great, if trying to keep the same you will want to size down as explained by Britt in this video or in the caption info above
How would you compare this to the fishbeard? I have a fishbeard and it`s my go to board since i bought it.

How does it compare to the Ci Twin Fin from a couple of years back?
Could you please point put some functional differences between this and the twin pin? Trying to decide which one to get and they sound quite similar
do you like Mikey February or do you like Tom Curren more?
@@alang253 hahaha is it that simple? Can't beat Mikey Febs style...
I want one!!!!!!

Reminds me of the MTF
