Brand New!!! Here’s a 9’6” Fowler V-Machine with Fiberglass Fins. This is a wave catching machine and crowd pleaser.The V-Machine paddles well and so pretty fast down the line. These boards work and are a must have for your quiver. Here’s a design description from Bruce Fowler
“Actually the V Machine can be ridden more from the middle because the panel v helps initiate going to rail.
Sure, they can be tail riders and many have remarked that they feel & look like how a good single fin rides.
The V is key: the increased amount of vee allow te board to lay over and hold well...... they love AM2 for the go to tri (or 5 fins set) as they are larger fins. I caution people not to go too small of fins as it will starve the board of its inherent horsepower.
V Machines like to be spanked: the more you lay into them, bend your knees & drive the board with both feet from a closer to center position, the more dividends she will respond with. Stoker rides shortboards much like he did or does on longboards....... there's nothing wrong with that, but I wanted to incorporate more into the design.
