Jack's board

5'9 pierformance shortboard. resinx, 3/4 convertable, carbon stringer.
this one is almost exactly like my personal shortboard just toned down a bit for a smaller rider.

Some new customs

Just finished shaping Dan's 5'10 diamond tail quad fish and Jack's 5'9 pierformance diamond tail 3/4 convertable. Both look fun, Dan's board is alot like the pierformance boards only with some volume moved forward to make it a little more fishy. Dan's board is very similar to my 5'8 pierformance shortie only tweaked for a lighter rider.

New Prototype, John Smolenski's 7'6 Big Guy Tri, Bill's Foam Alaia, Jordan's Performance Fish

Just finished a prototype shortboard for myself. Its a 5'9 pierformance diamond tail with a hinge tail and carbon skin stringer. The hinge tail in combination with the carbon skin stringer gives the board a faster rebound after flex giving more speed, agility, and lower swing weight perception. This system also flexes more naturally with the density of foam so you get more even flex, a stronger support system, and no more stringer dent. The s-glass and Resin-X also contributes to these features. For the outline I modified the template I used for matt and nicks boards to work better for a quad diamond. This outline will work really great with the quad/tri convertible fin setup so it is more versatile. Been thinking this shape out for a while and finally got the time to do it just before the fall waves. Will post ride report when we get waves.
I also am putting up the photos from John Smolenski's 7'6 big guy tri.
The Pics of the larger alaia is a foam alaia I just made for Bill. Its a little beefier than mine so its more user friendly. He has taken it out in some small beach break and said it was a blast.
I also finished Jordan's performance quad fish, just needs some carbon and glassing now. Pics to come when finished

Stuff going on

Marty and I are currently designing a board for Jordan. Right now it is a high performance fishy quad with a shallow moon tail. He wants the whole board carbon for strength and weight.
I am also starting templates for my own 5'10 diamond shortie. Similar to matt and nick's boards only with a little more forward center and a wider diamond tail to accommodate some quad fins. Going to be carbon deck patch/double s or whole carbon.
