Here is a 7' 4" Lightning bolt single fin circa late seventies.
Shaped by Tom Parrish, who used to shape most of the contest boards in Oahu for guys like Rabbit Bartholomew, Mark Richards, Peter Townhend, and Shaun and Micheal Tomson as well as others.
I guess they only had really thick fins in the 70's.
That fin looks like it is almost 1" thick.
I guess when you're surfing in Hawaii a little bit of drag isn't that big of a deal.

Is that Grumpy's board?
Im sure some of you have seen "bustin down the doors"... i think that those guys were killin it on those thick fins... but they aren't normal surfers.
a lot of times its not just the board but the actual person riding the board that has something to do with the way the wave is being ridden.
My eyes aint so good no more... please tell me that is not a picture of Laird coupled with that fine Bolt....
That's a sun bleached blond Gerry Lopez at Waikiki.
if you got a problem with laird you should tell him
The problem is Laird was 10 when that board was shaped. Drew is the one who put the picture up, so I told him.
You think Lairds gonna beat me up if I think a picture of Mark Richards or Lopez would be a better fit?
