Boards are starting to trickle in. The sign is up. Surfindian in Pacific Beach is opening a surfboard shop in the old Star Surfing Co. space. Chris, Russ and the crew have been working overtime getting the space ready. It looks like a very cool, hip board shop. The line up looks like it will include Donald Takayama, Tyler, Joe Bauguess/RK, Mast Surfboards, and a few others. I’m honored to have my boards in such good company. Opening soon, with the Grand Opening in May.
Another new one, 6’10”, hand shaped by me and carefully crafted by the boys at Channin’s.

Back to the coast for a couple weeks of shaping and tattooing. got a few boards planned. A couple of Simmons inspired twins. Perhaps a nice 9’1″ hullish glider. Whatever feels right at the time. Hmmmm.
Also will have a few new boards for Surfindian in Pacific Beach.
See you in the water!
Can’t wait to see this one after the boys at Channin get finished. It’ll have fins (from Rick at Mitsven) like Takashi’s board below and a nice gray tint.

Yes, it’s as cold as it looks, but beautiful in it’s way.
6’8″ hillbilly hull, round pin: a little higher volume and a tad more rocker than usual. Will be tinted mango.
5’7″ HPH formula 1: high performance hydrodynamic planing hull. Will have the same cool fins as Takashi’s and be tinted gray.
Both boards will get the usual flawless treatment at Channin and be available sometime in March.
Can’t wait to be shaping again at Channin. Feels like forever. Got a few ideas rattling around. I’m gonna hug my bus as soon as I get there.
