Wooden Spoon

This is the first spoon I have made specifically for surfing standing up.  The 5'0'' I could stand up on, but it is a much better paipo used with swim fins.  This 5'5'' should be enough to go without the fins and do some lalaing.

In The Works

5'10 twin fin and a 6'10'' Wegg

It's a 6'6'' Simmons glassed with bio resin.  I put the sticks in.  Paulownia.

Working in the yard

I spent the evening putting this wood on the deck of a 7'0'' board headed to Patagonia, Cardiff.

6'8'' Bio Wegg/ Sustainable Surf

The Wegg is great for days when the waves are chest high and up.  It paddles good, and it is fast and loose.  It's tri fin system keeps it stable, more controllable than a quad fin.  The pictured Wegg is epoxy, Entropy bio resin, and eps foam.  Do to the resin,  the board is qualified to be a part of the Sustainable Surf Program.  http://www.sustainablesurf.org/ecoboard/

More shots of the Wegg.

6'8'' Bio Wegg

This board is glassed with Entopy clear Bio Resin, shaped with eps foam, and has paulownia stringers I glued in.  The board really has a lot of inertia and is super fast and does strong turns.  It has a mix of the eps, epoxy resin and the wood.  I can't wait to get it in some good waves.

Hook up

Charles  Had this fish on lay-away and took it  home today.  I kind of hate to see it go.

Midlength Cutback

Scarecrow Cutback.  Ryo Matsuyama, from Real Surf Shop, Japan, took this picture the other day.   I'm riding a 7'10'' cross channel bottom.  The board is fast and turns good.  I have added some small side fins.

Headed to France

3'10 to 4'4''  Paipos,  a 5'0'' Wooden Spoon, and handplanes are on their way to Spyder in France.

Bio-Minis at Patagonia Cardiff

5'3'' and a 5'5'' Bio-Minis are now available at the Patagonia in Cardiff.  These are very fast and maneuverable boards.  The extra volume in these short boards allow good paddling for catching waves..  They are made from the best, eco-friendly materials presently available.  Curious? Go to the Patagonia store and try the demo board.

Im impressed with this shot of Jim from Sunday at the paipo event at Scripps.  The waves didn't have a lot of power or size.  The paipo can find the nooks and crannies of goodness on days like this.  Jim, on his 4'4'' found some juice and did a floater Curran would take note.
