Scrappy fin making.

This evening, Mike and I glued up some off-cuts from the veneer boards. When I put fins on boards, I like to experiment with templates, sizes etc. Fiberglass fins can get expensive, especially if you want to try a bunch of templates. Now I need to figure a way to attach these wooden fins without glassing them in.

Handplanes at Sacred Craft

Swiftly, I am working on some handplanes to be on display at the Korduroy.TV booth at the Sacred Craft. Go and check them out along with some surfboards, alaias, and the visual delights Korduroy will be providing.

The Pizzaz is in the Rail

I left the last 7'6'' in Maine. We really liked that board, so I made a new one. This is recycled foam, wood veneer, and super sap resin. This construction creates a lot of inertia and spring. It is loose and has the drive of a longer board.

Rosa's new 7'6''

6'10 Quadradamus

Paipos

3'6'' to 4'6.'' I class these as paipo boards. To kids, the larger two are stand up boards. At a demo day last weekend the kids were shredding on them.

The LALA Heard Around the World

Not far away from the site of the Boston Tea Party and Paul Revere's famous ride, Andrew Fish cuts a new line his first day riding an alaia. This is the alaia I brought to Maine and surfed during the Re-evolution event with Grain Surfboards. Andrew was there and took the board home.
