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.

Fin Job

My latest fin.  I must say it looks pretty good.  Assists: Curt Wegener, Jim Phillips.

Laminating a Woody

9'8'' sequoia, paulownia hollow longboard.  

Speed Squat

Browsing my archives I ran into some pics from 2008, the last time Tom was here. We got some epic waves this day. Tom is riding a 9'6'' toothpick and I a 7'2'' Anchovy Alaia.

Sandbar Session

This is a video of some friends and I surfing a sandbar in 2009. This was a small day in February. The constant larger surf had carved out good banks up and down the beach. Hopefully they will come around this spring. The wood longboard is a 9'8'' hollow airplane wing type construction and weighs 32 pounds. A little heavy on land but in the water is easy to move around. Wood boards have great momentum. In small tubes where the lip breaks on your back, the board pushes right through out onto the shoulder with little interruption. The guys are riding single fin longboards 9'0 and 9'6.'' Jason Buck, orange board, is riding a 9'0" 2 plus one and JoJo is riding a 6'2'' Wegg.
