Stand up and be counted...


Garage is rather full at the moment as i've got 4 boards on the go! From left to right; 5'1" xps flexspoon plug, 5'9" diamond tail, 6'4" hully egg, 8 'xps simmons. Outlines cut and ready for shaping. Spoon is for me and the other 3 are for people kind (brave!) enough to ask me to shape them a board....busy busy!

Fashion Victim...

Driftwood handplane #3 with 'shabby chic' paint job.




Theres lots going on in this little plane.  Rolled to deep single concave on the hull, spooned nose, bulbed handgrip and a concaved deck. Made for a friends birthday present....may it bring you many happy waves.

Twin fins for Timmy...


I am auctioning these fins off in aid of The Timmy Mason Trust. All proceeds from the sale of these fins will go to the trust.

Originally they were a set of RFC MR style lokbox twins, however I have reshaped and foiled them to increase their flex.


Tim Mason (Timmy's dad) is the man behind the Mason Surfboards and will be auctioning a board off every month to raise money for the Trust.

 Please check here for other auctions in aid of the trust and here if you wish to make a donation.

finlessness

Took my finless board out today in some pleasant little 2ft waves. I've neglected this board for some time now, so was good to get it back in the water....forgot how hard it is to surf without fins! loads of fun though!

New planer, New shape

New planer arrived the other day and was quickly put to use. Decided on a slightly different template to the one posted before.....definate 70's influence
