The Timmy Patterson Twin was brought back to life from an original glass-on template Timmy created over a decade ago. The idea was to take the surface area of a big keel, with the intention of surfing more progressively with an upright performance feel. The base dims of the fin are very similar to the overall height of the template. This keeps the drive and release of the template very balanced. This will give you fast down the line speed, all while remaining maneuverable and engaged through your turns. Designed to be ridden as a true twin, but works equally as well with a small stabilizing center fin if you have thruster box placement in your performance twin fin.
