It Happened.

11' of glide fell into a new 7'11 package in my shaping bay yesterday...

Swooooosh

Tre-Gor sliding around on a 5'5" Timberline fishy...the wood board side of my shaping has been really fun lately, lots of cool boards heading overseas.   

The shaped blanks (paulownia and foam) are coming in at about 5 lbs, the finished boards with quad lokboxes and glass fins are weighing about 7.5-8 lbs.

I rode Raph's new 6'1 stub yesterday and it kinda freaked me out how well it surfed, his was done with a new foam and it floated me and paddled better than a normal pu/pe board at that size...super stoked on it!

Dreamin' of a White Weekend

Brandon D. came by to hang out yesterday and watch me shape his board; a 6'3" x 22" x 2 3/4" fished out hull hybrid...he's got some camera skills and sent me this shot (among others) that i thought was really cool.

My daily driver is a 6'9" of this same shape; a pretty pulled in nose and slightly accelerated rocker, and a double to single concave inside the belly give it TONS of versatility and glide for such a short rail line.

Home-age

Vacation was good to me...family outings, big fish, girlfriend picking gargantuan zucchini, and Joe feeding sessions...never forget where you came from :)

Mas Spoonage

Taylor came down while I was building my spoon and built an edgeboard along side me, so we could both share in the joy of intense fiberglass itch and extreme foam waste. He took his board home to finish 'er off and sent me some pictures last week of the new happy couple enjoying the flowers of the northlands...stoked!

5'5 Velo-Sim

New Velo-Sim w/burly maple glassons...happens to the the board of the month for not too much longer!

The Right Tools

Sorry for the lack in posting lately, vacation/lack of waves/nearly finished new boards has held me up the past few days...will have copious amounts of board porn in a couple days :)
