KEEL TWIN

Keel twin is short, wide and thick with a flat rocker for lots of fun and high speed,
perfect for smaller waves,
however, these boards can be extremely functional in good
quality waves.
The classic Keel Twin fish was developed
in the mid 70’s as a knee board by Steve Lis. Pintail
surfboards were a favourite of his, but his swim fins would hang over the side creating drag.
He decided to split the tail, giving him the width needed to support his fins, while still
holding on to th
e performance characteristics of a pintail.
It wasn’t long until he had refined the design to suit stand up surfers, and the fish design
took off.
