'THE FAT KID' is all about volume, this one 5'11, i would really like to make my self one a little bit smaller around the 5'6-5'7 mark, the nose is fuller, lot more volume through the whole way of the board from tail to nose, the rocker is very flat, its a board for someone who wants a fun board but not a fish, wants a performance board but not your every day thruster.

TINTS
I think my favorite part of board making is the glassing, the things i love about this process are colour selection, laying out nice fresh cloth, mixing of the colours to the lam, i find it nice and relaxing...........then you add the harder and you have 8-10 mins to get the mix into the cloth and onto the foam, making sure your colour is nice and even, that your laps are wetted out and are nice and flat with no lifting in the cloth,making sure you have no drain out, all before your left with a goo going off in ya bucket......all fun and games until ya stuff it up!!

THE YELLOW YETTI KEEL FISH
THE YELLOW YETTI is a "5'4x "21.5"x"2.75" keel fish, i made this one for my self, i really wanted a fun little board for good days, something that's going to be a top to bottom board, big long drawn out turns, and supa fast. the bottom is a full concave the whole way through to the tail and out. Black and yellow tint with hand made ply keel fins that have also been tinted in blk. THE YETTI is still curing, i want to keep it for myself but I'm also heading overseas shortly so if you like the look of it your welcome to it, just drop me a line.
