Boards for the Youths

A 7'6 Sunset style single fin gun!

And a 8'0 mini log.

His wife did the graphic design and printed it out on a rice paper roll - cool!

New Shape and Lotsa Foam

This one is modeled after the board Kelly won Pipe Master on this year. 5'11 x 18.5 x 2 3/8 with wide point and thickness forward - low nose rocker with wide nose - tail has a lot of rocker and is very pulled in and thin - like a marriage of a stubbie up front and a semigun widepoint back. Basically an updated single fin with modern bottom and rail foil. This one is going to be a thruster. I have seen some of the obx gang riding these when it is thick up there.



I have another ridiculously large block of 2# eps - so if you want a handshaped epoxy or a blank to shape yourself - give me a shout!

Santa brought my present early this year....
