SickTubes

Today was the funnest day of surfing in South Carolina in a long time. So stoked right now. If you are one of the lucky few that stayed out for the last two hours before dark you have a grin on your face that won't be wiped off for a few days. Some major deposits in the stoke bank today! Hopefully some of the local photogs will post some photos of the day, but I don't think anyone was out there shooting the flawless overhead barreling A-frames during the magic twilight session.......I don't know what happened but the waves just went nuclear......like magic.....so STOKED!!!!!!!!

mike put up some shots! http://www.follysurf.blogspot.com/ !












someone sent me this from their phone! magical twilight sesh!

NEW EGG


with the record warm temps today, i got to do some resin work in the winter! here is the new woodie. thin balsa deck with fiberglass bottom. 1# eps core (the shaped core weighed only 3/4 of a lb!) next step is to put on the wood rails.

Strange Craft


a very unconventional surfboard made its way into the shop today. outline looks like a lopsided wakeboard and deck like had a pronounced s-shape. two fins on one side and one keel on the other. shaped by ryan burch for richard kenvin - two prominent surfers in the media these days. both incredible surfers with a knack for riding very different wave sliding devices. very cool!

GREENFOAM


Got some more blanks in yesterday, including this 'greenfoam' blank which is made of recycled foam. The extra foam shaved off a blank during shaping is captured and turned back into raw material to make a new blank. (http://www.greenfoamblanks.com/) I was going to glass this one with a pine based epoxy resin (http://www.entropyresins.com/). Maybe a bamboo or hemp cloth also? There are options out there if you want your surfboard to be more environmentally friendly. Give me a shout if you are interested.
