Carbon Lumps from Ryan Lovelace

Great bonzer from Ryan Lovelace who has kindly let me reproduce is post here for Just Bonzers.

“A little experiment with the v.bowls template/concept, morphed into a shortboard foil and bonzer 5 fin setup. The deck borrowed knowledge from the Stage III experiment last year; creating a stiffer nose and tail and weakening the middle to create torsion and twist, as opposed to lengthwise bending: I glassed 3" carbon strips along the curves of the deck to give the shape/pattern some direction and control, also a bit of snap”

This board reminded me a lot of my Riddler in shape and the concept of blending hulls and bonzers in a nuggety sort of outline. Loving those carbon strips.
