Mid length single fin

I've been riding this 7' single fin a lot lately. I really stoked on it, but it is my wife's. The old Lightning Bolt was a friend of mines and he ripped on it until the deck ballooned from nose to tail. (You got to fix your dings, especially if it is a Clark Foam blank). I saved the board because I wanted to make something like it one day. I'm going to use a similar outline and thickness, but put a similar bottom contour to my wife's board, some vee and some concaves.

Hollow Wood Fish

5'10'' Paulownia, Sequoia. This board took a while to make, but came out great.

Bio Mini 5'3''

• 

This is the order card Chad gave me for his board. It is glassed with the clear bio epoxy, and shaped from a recyclable blank. I have not done many of these boards with the full size keel fins. It does not have a stringer, just a glue line. This board will be super fast and will do radical flexing.

Toothpick, kookbox, 10er

Paipo for Tubes

3'4'' paipo. This one has a bit less volume than the usual ones I make. David said he wanted to pull into mostly close out tubes, good old South Bay beach breaks. The bigger paipos have a hard time holding a line in the tube in that kind of surf, so I shortened, narrowed and added some lift in the nose.

6'8'' alaia

This one is for Josh in Florida. A couple of planks of special wood are turned into a finely tuned speed machine.

Bluegill

This one is for me. 6'6'' wood bottom, wood cork wood rails, glassed with Entropy bio resin, and shaped out of a recycled blank. I tried cork in the rails this time. I want to see if their is any difference in flex. I have seen Paul Jensen and Danny Hess's wood boards using cork on the rails. They look really good. I don't think cork is much lighter, if any lighter than the wood I use, but I think it will be interesting to see how impact compression reacts from rail dings.
