Yeah, price is probably fair. Plus, I'm probably (definitely) ignorant of the skill / craft that goes into these bottoms. More money for craftsmen down the line, etc etc.
Back to the design, looks like you'd get the paddling, line-up positioning, and early entry of the original shape, but...
This is a lot for a used short board, but perhaps a deal to some. Never ridden an edge board, but this size and plan shape make sense in conjunction with the edge bottom to my eyes.

I'm on the wrong coast and don't regularly sniff the right kind of size, but this looks to be a beauty...

If you want to explore a channel twin, this looks like a great deal...

These should prob go in the buy / sell / trade forum, but, hey, flat ocean, dingleberry kind of week. Interesting to see the prices:

Thanks @Nilus and @kpd73
Interesting food for thought. I've heard that with bonzer concaves you really have to weight the back foot in order to control the speed out of turns. If true, wonder how that differs with the slightly different LV and B5 bottoms.
No connection to the shop...
Reviving the old bonzer thread, looking for a little education ...
How would a roughly 5'10 MBLV compare to 6'8 CB Egg?
I'm guessing the egg has a little more gradual rocker, thinned out nose? Both single to double concave / bonzer warp drive?
@kpd73 , this bonzer mania is contagious
Wrong coast, little pricey, nose might be too wide, but I like the ad,

Long admired the MPEGG. Never ridden one, but curious, do you think that given current trends -- hull-ish, channels -- the mpegg is a little underrated, under the radar? Who cares about trends, ya ya ya, but I used to see Aluetian Juice widomakers and stubbs and mpeggs way more...
No criticisms here with either price, but huh?

Thanks, all. I've seen some of Wynn's twinzers pop up on craigslist.
@JMJackFish , think it was a pic of your pink mabile twinzer that in part got me heading down this path...
