Hull Surfaces: A Scientific Approach

I have been surfing now for some 50 years. (Think I got my longest nose ride ever at Malibu yesterday,sweet. And the girls/women in bikinis were outstanding! I think I fell in Love).
Anyway, It's interesting how the boards I see being ridden now just seem to be variations of what I was riding and were being experimented with 30 - 40 years ago. It's all pretty much been done before. The amazing thing is how these boards are being ridden now. The guys like Kelley Slater have taken surfing to a whole new level. Probably beyond anything anyone could have imagined 40 years ago. These guys are riding 1.8 meter boards on 6 meter waves at pipeline, INSANE. Can't even imagine how they do it.
I would need about a 3 meter board to even attempt it,(unlikely).

Yes Ole, this is the guy I'm working with. God find in your part. He is more then willing to exchange ideas and thoughts with manufacturers in hopes of developing this. . Sorry for the long delay. Swamped with work.
