Rather than being totally functional, I'd say many of those older twin pins were examples of quickly shifting design norms.
Think of the kinda confused planshapes that came out immediately after Simon '81. Three fins on double flyer swallows, a dead ahead twinnie outline. In other words, a mismatch between fin config and the best outline for it.
Reckon there's an element of that in some of the twin pin photos we've been sharing. Not all, but some. Twin fins on an outline better suited to singles.
No farking way
Nice

Any footage of someone surfing this, udo? That thing is nuts.

Matahi Drollet went close, Alex Hayes even closer, perhaps even inside it.
^^ Haysus! Why? What possible benefit is gained from that?
Reduced swing weight has got to be minor to negligible.
Plus it looks ugly as sin.
