Britt Breaks Down Tom Curren's Free Scrubber

The twin finned namesake to Tom Curren’s surf edit, Free Scrubber, is a legacy design Tom created with Britt. The board is a re-creation from the magic twin fins Tom remembers Al making him some 40 years ago. But the Free Scrubber isn't just a straight copy of that original era's designs, he wanted to combine the best of that time period with the best of today's board design attributes. Tom wanted to harness the feeling of their low rocker, classic vee bottom feels as well as incorporate the traditional early ’80s winged swallow tail outline. The modern twist came through giving it a more refined rail and foil, so it doesn't have a girthy cruiser feel underarm and it is certainly noticeable underfoot because the Free Scrubber is as fast and loose as the boards he remembers but with added drive, hold, and responsiveness. Tom and Britt both feel this design is the perfect twin fin for surfers generally oriented more toward thrusters. A spicy and quick surfboard designed to give you all the freedom of a twin while allowing you to go places on the wave you didn’t think possible. Britt recommends that you ride the Free Scrubber 1" to 2" shorter than your Happy Everyday or 3" to 5" shorter than your Two Happy.
