Nick Cook layin' it down on the rasta Hullibut...

I always urge people to push these boards in all kinds of conditions, Nick does that quite often.

I'm very glad.

Nick Cook, pulling in on the most well-used hullibut to date...Brandon DiPierri shot this sometime last winter, it's a new favorite!

Creationistic

Nick Cook photographed the drawing of a modified PC logo a couple months ago, we got a lot of good work done that afternoon but this logo didn't make the final cut :(

PC's Third Stage on Korduroy!

Guess what time it is everyone?

MOVIE TIME! f*ck YEAH!

Been slaving away all week on thise 6 minute chunk of stuff, and Cyrus Sutton was kind enough to post it up with a little interview on Korduroy.tv.

There's lots of surfing going on in it, even some footage of Nick riding the Flex Spoon that I made for Jonny.

The video has Connor Lyon, Ross Bushnell, Kyle Albers, Nick Cook and Pete Surprenant, all shredding away on some of my boards over the past week of waves...lots of 4:30am departure times went into this and I think it payed off.

What I think payed off even more was the time I put into Stage III, the thing goes OFF. So much natural speed its ridiculous, I'm sussing out a new fin for it, you can see it slide a little and send Nick into the shallows later on into the video...gotta fix that :)

Aside from that though, Ross was stylin' on it and taking it to warp 10 around 2:02, and Connor getting some spring in his step around 1:40. Also keep a very close eye on how it loads up through the second session, being in a more tense wave put a lot of strain on the board and made it visibly warp which made me a very happy camper!

anyways, enjoy the Third Stage here...WOOHOOOOO

Nicky's Hullibut is a little bit modified and seems to be gettin' the job done :)

also, take a second to sign up for the mailing list i just started the other day, I'll be putting up the monthly board offer (discounts on custom boards!) there, rather than the blog, as well as updates on the newest experiments and info on soon-to-come models!  no spam, nothing too awkward, just an email every few weeks with the latest happenings!

Good friend and hull-addict Nick Cook shot analog (as always) from his tank-sized water housing a few weeks ago and snagged a couple cool shots from a really funky session at a really fun northern point, check 'em:
