A couple boards are in the works up on the hill right now. Both will have a single box, nice earth-tone resin tints, and full gloss and polish.

heading west
Headed out to beautiful San Diego for a couple weeks of work. Long weekends at Avalon in PB, tattooing, and weekdays up on the hill at Bing, shaping. Of course I hope to be in the water every morning!
New boards on the way
Coming to Surfindian:
7’2″HPH speedster: (mid-Simmons), 6oz volan, wooden keels
7’7″ hillbilly gentleman: (hull) a milder version of my hillbilly hull in 6 oz volan
7’10″egg: a sleek refined San Diego egg in 6 oz volan
long day
Okay, so today I spent at the Bing factory (formerly Channin’s) up on the hill in Encinitas shaping. To show for it I have an 8’2″ EDB winter round pin and a 7’1″ HPH speedster. Both will be finished in 6oz. volan and are up for grabs. Tomorrow I have a US Blanks 8’0″H to shape. Hmm. What sounds fun?
new friends
Was able to finally put a face to the name. Met Joaquin from France and his friends at Surfindian today. They purchased a couple of my boards a year or so back and sent a comment that they were enjoying them. It’s always gratifying to realize the happiness that surfing engenders and that I can have a small part in making it happen.
6’1″ HPH speedster
New HPH (hydrodynamic planing hull) speedster for a great client back East.
New 7’5″ Malibu/SD hull
This one is for the Paducah kid, you know who you are (Rich) (not you angry Rich). It’s a hybrid of a full Malibu hull with some concave running out the back for San Diego (as in not perfect point breaks). The rails are as knifey as it gets and it is oh so foiled. Coming soon to Surfindian, unless someone claims it first.
another spy photo
Once again my guy at the factory, risking life and limb, has provided me with a glimpse of an upcoming HPH (9’7 1/2″) with another awesome Bing resin job.
hang together!
