Metamorphosis

(BEFORE) Check this out! A Clark Foam 6'5 original. Clark went out of business in 2005 so that makes this bad boy at least 6 years old. A bud dragged it out from under his house water stained and caked in dirt. Maybe there is some good foam underneath.......
(AFTER) Yep - some good foam still in there - check out this shape that I found inside!

Maria



They just keep coming! The 3rd sister - Maria!

BTW - Katias swell was pumping at sliders point, weasel reef, and the crocodile river mouth of death! We must protect these secret spots!

Virgin White


I love the way a bright white stringerless blank gleams in the shaping room. this one will get a bamboo deck and an extra layer of glass to stiffen it up. check out the woodie in the corner - got the top and bottom skins on, next will be the rails. and some classic loggies up in the racks waiting to be glassed!!!!

24.6 FT @ 16 SEC

Well Irene you totally surpassed the hype this evening with some of the biggest clean surf I have ever seen in SouthCarolina. The washout lived up to its name once again and washed over the dunes all over the road - take that beach re-nourishment! It was like a spectator sport today as ALL the crosswalks were stuffed with people whose cheers for valiant rides and bone crunching wipeouts could be heard in the lineup. Our prayers are with our friends and families in North Carolina tonight - BE SAFE!

STOKE!

I thought you'd appreciate to hear that my brother in-law rode the fish you shaped me yesterday and it rekindled his stoke for surfing. He moved away from the shore several years ago and has had an on again off again relationship with surfing ever since. Yesterday he told me he's back. Thought you'd enjoy that story. See you out there this week
