I was going to build my freind Nick a 5'6 twin fish. I was half way finished with it when Nick happened to call. He wanted me to put some concave in the deck, like how Pavel does his speed dialers. I added the concave, then the board looked too small for Nick... but perfect for my buddy Jeremy, who already wanted a 5'4 Twin.

I was going to make another fish for Nick. I called him before starting to make sure what he wanted and he had changed his mind. He had, he wanted a 5'6 CI Biscuit copy. He gave me some dimensions he found on Swaylocks. In my shaping room someone had a machined 5'6 CI Pod... somewhere between the phone call and the shaping room I confused biscuit and Pod.

So, I shaped the board to the dimensions Nick gave me, with the bottom contours and fin placement of the Pod and my own foil. I'm going to call it the Blob. I'm not really sure if Nick wants the Blob or not, if you want it, it can be yours for the low price of cost which is $270
