Gabe's New Shortboard

Gabe wants a shortboard that will float him. He is 6'4'' and not waify, but wants maneuverability. We took the Wegg, a design he likes and mixed it up with the knee boards I have been making. The result is a 6'2'' 24wide and 3'' thick. He wants to be able to tube ride and the ability to have a vertical lip assault, so we shied away from a twin fin. This board will be a 2 plus 1 like the Wegg.

Another Sunny Day at the River



We are spending Thanksgiving at the river. This movie is from the past summer. Curt, my brother, made this little boat. It was just big enough for a small adult to sit in and a little tough to paddle. I think we will work on another one for next summer. I forgot to give credit to Belle and Sebastion for the music. "Another Sunny Day" is the song title.

Demo Day. Montauck. Hurricane Bill 2009


Hope everybody had a nice Thanksgiving. We are up in the mountains. These shots were from New York. It was supposed to be a day for people to demo alaias. It is a lot easier to to demo when it is small. I caught some good size waves on the 6'7'' Lightening Bolt board. Unfortunately the waves were breaking so far out I do not think anyone noticed. I had fun though.

All Points Bulliten



The board on the right was snatched out of the back of Tony Alva's truck in Oceanside a couple of days ago. It is all foam except a ding repair on the corner. I repaired it with wood. There are only two boards like this, so if you see any body with it, please apprehend and stage a citizens arrest. Tony really liked the board.

Greetings

This is my new asylum. I took a picture of the room in the beginning, because it will probably never look the same. I am stoked. The room has been easy to adjust to, and I believe, have shaped some nice boards.
