waterboy i did a post a couple of months ago so this is the finnished result, i made the board last winter to replace my CA55,and made the changes to the foot strapps cos i found the nose lifting off chopp in winds from 25 to 30 knts, there was a bit of volume at the tail, so getting my heel a bit closer to the water mite sort it" lets hope "

and the wingers are just an experiment ,they only added 20grms to the weight so if they dont do anything ill take them off

Was that a CA55 originally?

Chopping the nose is usually enough to reduce lift unfortunately in lighter wind it may stick.

no i made the board from scratch the reason i made it was the CA 55 was a bit big , this was my main board last year , im makeing a new board (wingers 'foot recesses and a scooped deck, with 5 mini nonconecting stringers) i hope to have it finnished for green island next month
