Pyzel Crisis Twin Surfboard The Crisis Twin is a natural evolution from our Mid Length Crisis, which was typically ridden as a 2+1. We kept seeing people throwing twin keel fins into the forward boxes and realised it made the board a whole different thing, but the fin placement wasn’t optimal for control and performance. So eventually we built the Crisis Twin, a twin fin only version of the MLC with speed and flow as the main objectives. The design was already well suited to being ridden as a twin, a semi- traditional, wide-point forward outline that is sleek and racey for fast, down- the-line drive, but full bodied enough to provide added stability and glide in weaker, slower waves, but we did make a few small tweaks to improve it, pulling in the nose outline a touch to add more curve for more carve, and also adding some nose rocker to free it up a bit in tighter pockets and late drops. Easy paddling, responsive and loose, it has a beautiful foil from beaked nose to round tail, with a rolled deck that leaves the meat in themiddle of the board to help with paddling and nicely thinned out rails for sensitivity and bite. The outline is a long, clean curve, with no hip or wings, so it keeps a smooth flow on rail and through turns. The rocker is a moderate, long, clean curve running from tip to tail without any radical changes or flip. It is designed for fast paddling and to easily generate speed, carry flow, and smooth turning at any speed. The bottom contours are a mild vee with double concave (the oldschool term is “Spiral Vee”). This basically means that the board has no problem tipping from rail to rail, making smooth transitionsthrough turns an easy accomplishment for all levels of surfer. The bottom line is that the Crisis Twin is a fast paddling, fast surfing and super fun addition to our Velocity Project lineup. It might help you look at weaker, funky waves with a little more lust, and it will for sure let you have a blast at any long, lined up wave you can find! We recommend you ride this board as short or as long as you want, it works great as a little rip stick or a longer cruiser, whatever makes you happy.
