6'8 FOR TIM




6'8 stubbie for Tim, this is a great board, he only had a short board which he struggled to ride and a 9 something mal that once it got over 2 foot he had trouble riding, so when the swell is 2-6 foot he'll be ready to charge!

NEW KID ON THE BLOCK

So after 7 years of trying to have kids, and watching all our friends have them so easy, it was quite a surprised 8 weeks ago when my wife Shelly came up to me when i was cooking dinner one night and while holding up a baby test told me that we are having a mini frost. At that time it was hard for me to believe that it was really happing due to what we had gone through in the past, but the other day we went for our 12 week scan and that's when it hit, seeing this amazing little creation rolling around with arms and legs kicking, it is best thing iv ever seen! so may next year will be a crazy time! very pumped and looking forward to it.

7'8 SINGLE STAN






finished SINGLE STAN this week, he's a 7'8 mid length, 50/50 pinched rails, rolled belly very close to a hull, fabric inlay with a resin pin line, 12 inch box with a flex fin, wet sand finish, really like this board, it will be a fun board in a little larger swell on a good point break or beachie.

friend or foe


Over my life iv only ran into these's fish of the larger kind a few times. Growing up in South Australia you'd think i would see a few more, only seen one in S.A as i was paddling out in the wave in front of me that i was about to go under, the beast was about the same size as the one above. Last summer was another time, late in the arvo at north avoca with a few boys on the logs, rode a wave in over the top of it, strangest thing to see it from above.

New 9'6 crim pin for Sean Finnelley, really like this board, pinched rails, rolled belly into a vee, flat as nose with a blended tear drop concave and its clear! haven't done a clear board for a while, it was nice with a little fabric inlay, took half the time to glass and finish. Keep an eye on the cool kid at curiositykiller.

In this gem you learn the in's and out's of ordering a custom board, how to paddle, how to high 5, how to hang 1o, and how to talk like a surfer, everything you need to know to look and act the part.
