A New Request........6'5" Simm-21 Quad Fish




Dan Stupar called me last month and asked if I would do a Simm-21 for him, but change it up a bit.............to a fish with a quad set-up. Heck, why not? the board is getting a Michael Miller ultra-violet full tint glass job as I am composing this. This one will absolutely RIP.

This looks fantastic! I'm a big guy weighing in at 230 pounds, I like the look of this shape, would it work as a 9ft model? I'm used to 10'6''/ 11' boards.

Thanks for sharing!

Steve,

The Simm-21's top out at about 8-0 max and still retain their designed performance charatceristics. But.....I actually think this Simm-fish version would work very well as a 9-0. JC

JC,
Thanks for your reply. The Simm-Fish idea sounds interesting, have you already shaped any of these?

Steve, I haven't translated this exact shape into a 9-0, but my many years of surfing / shaping intuition tell me that this one would work..............really well. I'm not pushing boards here. That's just a straight up impression about the board shape and the size that interests you.

Warren C, Good to hear from ya!!!
