    Other than the standard square tail, does anyone have any thoughts on the performance of different designs such as a crescent or diamond on a mini simmons?

    I shaped and rode one with a diamond and it was my favorite board until my current board.

    Check out the Tomo boards. He's got some crazy tails and some logic to go with why they are the shape they are. I am thinking of shaping one like this MPH Dual http://tomosurfboards.com/mph.html#

    My new board for the last year have been 2 Bing Dharmas, a 5'6" and a 6'0" . I recently bought a Bing sweepea to replace my 6'0" Dharma but am not sure if I like it yet.
