Just thinking about how much I love my 'Rastafari' board.  The actual brand name is a 'Rusty Piranha,' the idea being that the board is a modern day, radicalized fish.  Hence, the 'Piranha' label as opposed to the generic term fish.

Here's a detailed description from Rusty:

Our proven, extremely popular, everyday modern fish. Among other things, traditional fish have a long, straight, rail line relative to their overall length and a lot of area behind the foot. The tail area is stepped down with 3 sets of wings. This help to make the board quicker from rail to rail and tighten the turns.

Specs:
Rocker, bottom and thickness are similar to a performance shortboard like the Burnout. Has a full nose with the wide point nudged in front of centre. The triple wings step a fairly wide tail down to about a 5 1/2" inch split.

Fins:
All boards fitted with FCS plugs and come with FCS fins

My board actually has orange and green stripes swirled on the deck, which is why I refer to the board as the 'Rastafari.'  Underneath are three super pretty blue FCS fins.

Until I get around to posting a pic of the Rastafari, I'll leave here a generic pic from Rusty:

OK - finally managed to get that pic of the actual board.  Here it is:
