Cali bro

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!

ROUNDTAIL FISH

BONZERIFIC!

INSPIRATION FROM TIM STAFFORD. CHECK OUT HIS SHAPES HERE: http://justbonzers.blogspot.com/

Fresh 6'0

shaped this over the weekend for a friend - thought it came out really nice! 6'0 x 19-1/2 x 2-3/8. will have 5 fins for quad or thruster! from the new 6'0R blank from US foam. second one i have shaped - really like the curves and foil it has!

GHOST WAVE

this looks pretty awesome. i have the girls friday night so probably wont be able to make it but i am going to try!

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.

Surfy Sunday

shaped blanks loaded and ready to go to the glass shop!

bonzer bottom!

fresh fish with a fresh glass job....

and some new log blanks to mow!

Happy New Year 2012!!!!

Starting off the new year with a new wood board project. 5'8 quad egg with HEAVY single concave all the way through. It will have a thin balsa deck and rails but foam bottom. Hoping to get some bennnnnnnnd to this one.

Here is to a 2012 filled with fun waves and good buds on a favorite shred sled! Thank you to everyone who commissioned a shape from me last year - I had a lot of fun making you boards!

Mele Kalikimaka!

Merry Christmas to me!

Here is to some winter barrels!

OLD AND NEW

here we have an old transitional era 7'0 v bottom surfboard shaped by doug haut and a new version shaped by yours truly with the same outline and rocker but with an evened out foil and slightly mellower rails. finished off with a killer free-lapped resin tint glass job by the talented jamie tuttle.

In the queue

2 shaped up and 4 more waiting...

Baby its cold outside

winter is coming upon us - that means no one wants me to make them boards so i can make some for myself - yey! here is a little 5'7 dumpster diver-y thing that i am hoping to christen tomorrow morning!

the cold temps have forced me to break out the high tech curing oven....

Happy Thanksgiving

We have a lot to be thankful for!

ask and you shall receive - here are some more pics....
