The San Diego Fish
The SAN DIEGO FISH:
The SAN DIEGO FISH has been my traditional fish design for almost 50 years. I originally shaped this design for myself and my riders in California in 1971-72 before moving to Hawaii to study, work and surf. I've kept up on the refinement of the SDF since then, and in 1991 began building more SDF designs for guys like Donavan Frankenrieter and my son, Ryan and other team riders. We still build many of this model as custom orders worldwide. In 2002, Larry Mabile and I were shaping next to each other in Miramar, San Diego and Larmo greatly influenced my approach on this model as well.
We offer this design as the classic straight Swallow, as well as offering a single and double wing version as well. Normally, this is offered with either classic glass-on fiberglass/wood keel set up, as well as with the removable fin option via Futures or FCS using the MR twin design,or related products such as the Rob Machado series, or with Futures with the AMT and the K2 Keel designs. We also can do the SDF as a quad design as well, usually as the double wing swallow tail configuration, and the Futures Controller design is a nice option.
Board Range: 5'2 ~ 6'6
While I think it’s helpful to have rider weight and dimensions: remember these are only a general guide. My team will work personally with all my customers and their specific needs:
5'4 x 19.25 x 2.25 @28.5cl
5'6 x 19.75 x 2.37 @32.2cl
5'8 x 20.00 x 2.50 @34.3cl
5'11 x 20.62 x 2.62 @38.6cl
6'2 x 21.00 x 2.75 @42.6cl
6'4 x 21.50 x 2.87 @46.4cl
6'6 x 21.87 x 3.00 @50.3cl
