| Dolphin fan Ilan and brother Tito |
I shaped this 9-6 Neo Single-fin for Miami Dolphin Fan Ilan. Boards dimensions are 9-6 18-3/4" x 23" x 15-3/8" 3". Board has typical Neo features: half-length, blended nose concave, moderate "V" in tail and eggy, 60/40 rails.
The two 1/8" cedar stringers can be seen clearly through the tourqoise and orange resin tint glass job (by Ray Lucke). A clear True Ames "Slick" model center fin finishes off this noseriding beauty.
Ilan was able to watch the entire shaping process from raw blank to finished shape.

This board absolutely kills it. Not only does it look rad and noseride really well, but it turns almost as well as my 9'0 tri-fin takayama. Thanks Thomas!
