Mini









Wednesday afternoon proved to have some REALLY clean little peelers, hardly rideable (they look bigger than they were) but fun to dream about!

...and a bonus photo for kicks!

TW

Superbad







I've been pondering this board for a while now, and FINALLY it's ready to go.
The pink stringerless blank sat in my shaping room for a good two months or so because the color wasn't QUITE what I had in mind...I was hoping for a dark red, when I got a pink 7'3 blank, I was a little put off.
It sat and sat, until I decided I had to do it before the AB3. Once I decided that a twin finned hull is a good thing (its a GREAT thing), it was a go.
I wanted to hide as much of the color as I could, without detracting from the stringerless-ness of it (its always nice to see it). I ended up doing an unside down opaque deck with a SUPER dark brown, then left the bottom clear.

The pinlines are the product of frustration...I had planned on doing a billion curves over the whole bottom, but once I layed down the initial curves I decided that I didn't much care for them. The tape was all pulled off the board and I was back at step 1...so I thought of the most simple, dead-straight pinlines that I could do, while keeping it classy and not looking like a fruity jail cell.
What came out looks like a very expensive candy bar.

Unusual

Welp, Its not very usual that I have stock boards for sale, but seeing as how the AB3 is this weekend, I've whipped a few up.
There will be:

6'3 b5 (chippy shape, used)
5'9 stringerless bonzerfish (color, polish + pinline)
5'7 SBq (clear/polish w/pinlines and glasson quad)
6'0 SDq (pigmented deck and bottom, polished + pinlined)
5'7 Carbon Railed SDq (used)
6'5 Winged Swallow Singlefin (clear sanded finish)

I think thats what I've got at the moment, a few will be used after the weekend, but they are all brand new at the moment except the carbon quad + the b5.
shoot me an email if you're interested, or even better, come ride one and see if you like it this weekend at Cardiff!

Collection

A cool little slideshow of some boards past and present :)
made with www.animoto.com

Stringerless' for theAB3







A blue bonzerfish (shaped photos below), as well as the magenta hull...both going to the AB3 to be ridden silly for those interested. The magenta board has a REALLY dark brown opaque deck, the bottom will stay clear; the blue board is the same, blue opaque deck and clear bottom.

Bonzerfish







Here is one for the Anything But 3 event, its a 5'9 SDq templated (minus the wings) bonzer fish. This one will get some pretty intense colorwork, a particular design that I've had in my head for a while now!

Stevie









Steve S's 6'3 x 18 3/4 x 2 3/8 B5 chip...It came out killer, nice and light, especially for a board with colors and pinlines (they are glossed over). I can't wait to surf with Steve and watch this thing go!
