Only thing I miss about San Diego...


The occasional clean, shoulder high Spring morning in Cardiff with only one pesky SBer.

Wall hanger finds a wall...


I really like the shape of this 7-6 Nomad. Its one of my favorite templates, a cross between a Velzy egg and a Martinson egg, with a little more peak in the nose (my input). Add a couple of feet in the middle, and it would make a pretty nice longboard shape...hmmm. Here it is in its final resting place...

Mini-Widget for Joe...

In an earlier post, I documented the shaping of my mini-Simmons design, which I like to call the "Mini-Widget". After lamination and hotcoating, the Futures boxes were added ansd the leash cup, followed by more sanding and a lot of polishing...
And, here's the final result...



    The Mini-Widget is a great small-wave alternative to a longboard or a fish. They can be built with a variety of tails including wide arc-tail, straight, or a fish like notched-tail. Fins can be twin keels, or quad.
Contact me if you want to try a demo.
