Twin Royale
The Twin Royale is a deluxe mid-length twin fin. A custom cruiser built to glide into waves easily and turn the kind of long, lit-up arcs that make mid-length surfing feel timeless.
Mid-lengths are back, and the Twin Royale is the answer for surfers who want something stylish, easy-to-paddle, and unmistakably premium under their feet. The wide template gives the board the volume and stability to catch everything, while a deep double barrel concave running the full length of the bottom unlocks the maneuverability most wide mid-lengths give up. The result is a board that paddles like a glider, holds rail, and looks beautiful sitting in the rack.
Order it with four Future Fin boxes so you can run it as a pure twin or switch to a quad for added drive, or add cheese and go fully deluxe with a set of glass-on wooden keel fins. Doc shapes the Twin Royale from standard mid-length sizes all the way up to super-sized. Order it bigger if you want the full glide experience.
Whether you're cruising weak summer beach breaks, gliding through clean point waves, or just want a board that turns heads on the rack, the Twin Royale is built for it.

PU Polyester
- The standard blank, offering a classic feel and smooth ride. Known for its flex and responsiveness in a variety of wave conditions.
- Polyester Blank
- Polyester Resin
Poly with Epoxy Resin
- Stronger than polyester resin and makes the board more durable.
- Polyester Blank
- Epoxy Resin
EPS Epoxy
- Great strength to weight ratio.
- Lighter and stronger than a polyester board in the same dimensions.
- Slightly more flotation.
Single Slot Channel
- A single slot channel is a singular, short groove starting about 10 inches from the tail and getting deeper as it exits out the end of the board.
Benefits:
- Improved Drive: The single slot channel helps direct water flow, providing the board with extra drive and speed, especially in smaller, weaker waves. A great alternative to having a center fin on twin or quad fins.
- Control: It offers enhanced control by channeling water more directly under the board, making it easier to maintain a stable line during turns.
- Versatility: This channel design is versatile, performing well in various wave conditions, from small beach breaks to bigger surf. Adds a little grip to your rip.
4 Channel
- A 4-channel design features four grooves on the bottom of the board. A slightly longer center channel. The outside channels are a little shorter starting from the back quarter of the board, starting shallow and progressively get deeper as it exits the tail.
Benefits:
- Speed and Lift: The 4 channels create lift by directing water flow more efficiently, allowing the board to plane better on the water's surface, which results in increased speed.
- Enhanced Grip: This design provides additional grip and hold during turns, making it excellent for carving and generating speed through sections of the wave.
- Responsiveness: The configuration of the channels offers more responsiveness in turns, allowing for sharper, more precise maneuvers.
- Aesthetic Appeal: High-gloss shine enhances visual appeal and makes the board stand out.
- Durability: Offers a little bit of strength and durability.
Protects the crucial area of the board under your back foot. It’s worth the price if you are hard on your boards and have a tendency to crush the tail with your back foot.
