some pretty nice boards are currently in my board rack. unfortunately not very well treaten by airport staff... i will try to bring them back to shape and make toby happy again.

plug party

finally i moved my ass in the shaping bay again. worked on the ant board and did set the plugs (leash & go pro). once the resin will be delivered next week i can do the gloss coat on the bottom.





toby will come over the next days. he recently purchased two al merrick sticks for his trip around the world. obviously, the guys at the airport on his way back from portugal handled the boards not very well. looking forward to do the ding repairs.
