Took my uncle for his first bodysurf today, conditions were not great, its was freezing! But at least the strong offshores were holding the faces up
Not the longest of rides I had today but it produced the best video

Diver Doodle...
My new board just got a little better thanks to the fine talents of Martin Scott, who is far too talented sometimes!
Hand drawn over 4 hours with a fine posca pen!

Back to Business...
Garage make over is all finished and I've made a start on my next board. A 5'8" arctail twin fin with a 3/4" balsa stringer.
Quite excited to get this finished and in the water!

All or Nothing...
Been shaping various things for a while now and I think i'm getting better, or at least I hope I am! If I'm going to pursue this with any sort of seriousness some things need sorting out. So i've sold all the boards I ride that I haven't shaped (bar the mat) with a view to just riding my own shapes, developing and refining them. The garage is getting abit of organisation with board storage racks, wetsuit hanger and some new shaping racks that I can actually level.
I definately have ideas floating around about eventually becoming a proper shaper......although thats quite a long off!
