Paisley

Remember those bitchin' old board from the 1960's with the crazy paisley fabric decks, well I love'em! hear is one that I did for my friend Barry Hatchet. It's a classic triple stringer pin tail nose rider, I am very proud of this board. I was allowed to display my respect and interest for classic craftsmanship with the triple stringer, fabric inlay and the classic glass job with a glass-on fin. Also I was stoked it was for my good friend and solid supporter Barry Hatchet. This board is a culmination of good stoke, good craftsmanship and good people! Barry and Tricia.

10'0 California Classic

The California Classic is one of my favorite templates of all time. It is a mid 1960's pin tail nose rider and is meant for Malibu, rincon and pleasure point, cowells etc. I have rode this shape at those breaks and it is so smooth to turn and easy to nose ride. The thought behind this board is ; less is more. The board relies on a combination on rocker, rail-line and template curve. A flatter nose rocker going into a smooth flow tail curve allows this board to ride in the middle face of the wave, the tail rocker allows the board to fit in the pocket, and pivot turn releasing the long forward rail line. I ride these boards a little narrower and about 2 inches longer than what i normally ride, however I am larger so it's all body to board proportion. But I still recommend 2 in. longer than what you would normally ride.
