Ryan Burch's large twin, Futures compatible solid fiberglass in clear.
Ryan Burch's large twin, Futures compatible solid fiberglass in clear.
Burch's twin runs a 5.5" base against 5.37" of depth — a large twin by area, with the base marginally wider than the fin is deep.
Large area plus a drive-biased base makes this a twin for boards that need holding: bigger fish, asymmetricals, anything with enough tail area to overpower a smaller set. It rewards a long, committed turn.
Riders who found standard twins let go earlier than they wanted.

Burch's go-to hybrid twin template now available in large, bridging a more upright high-aspect twin and a traditional larger profile keel.
Zippy, and fast, and free-feeling, with the large simply carrying that feel onto bigger boards and bigger riders.
Reach for the Large Twin when your tail is wide or your weight asks for more fin: it drives and holds where the standard Burch Twin would feel undersized and loose, trading a little zippy looseness for planted authority. Narrower tails and looser tastes are better served by the standard size.
The larger version of Ryan Burch's hybrid twin template, made by True Ames in Futures-compatible solid fiberglass. The template bridges an upright high-aspect twin and a larger traditional keel, with more base and area than the standard Burch Twin. It is intended for wider-tailed keel fish and heavier riders.
The review says the Large trades a little of the standard Twin's zippy looseness for hold and drive on wider tails and under bigger riders.
The review notes the Burch Large still releases and turns more freely than the McCallum Keel, which it names as the committed keel-glide alternative.
