summer break

i've been a bit lazy when it comes to shaping boards. but as we'll soon depart to our annual hendaye reunion with surf gypsy crew i started to build a board for my younger daughter. it'll be again a a finless (safety reason) board, similar to a bodyboard. but i'd never call it one :-) stay tuned for some pictures which will soon be posted on the blog. in the meantime i'd like to share a nice video from the crazy swell hit indonesia recently. enjoy!

what a week!

we had warm weather, light winds and the ocean sent us two swells during these days in baleal. furthermore we were treated with great food, wine and have been taken out for a party with our dear old friend bruno. epic and to be continued in 2016!

sgc trip 2015

there's not much going on in the shaping bay since we are working on a new wooden terrace and this requires all my attention and time. however, on saturday we'll meet again for the annual sgc reunion in baleal. can't wait, boards are packed and i am very hungry to get some waves…

more photos will follow at a later stage. stay tuned.

blue stripe - back to life

i started to work on this board almost 2 years back when toby visited me. we both spent a few hours together in the bay and shaped the outline. i don't know why, but the board never made to the finishing process until this weekend when i did the gloss coat.

it will be for sale in a couple of weeks and is suited for beginners who want to change from a mini-malibu to a smaller board. its wide outline and plenty of volume will give you enough stability to catch even small summer waves.
