Since there is no surf right now and am stuck indoors due to constant rain. I am thinking of heading to the mountains to do the second most fun thing on earth. Snowboarding!! I don't personally know Hector Barrero (the filmaker) but he often does surf video's for my friend Carlos Clavero of CeCe surfboards in Spain. I love his stuff. If your bored check out some of his other videos on vimeo.

2009-07-06T09:04:00.000-07:00

Venice is a great city to visit. So easy to get around and your constantly looking up in wonderment. The one downside is that in the summer there are so many tourists. The lines to get in anywhere are a bit of a bummer.

2009-05-18T08:39:00.000-07:00

This weekend was an awesome weekend in Ventura at the Sacred Craft. Got to hang out with a lot of cool people as well as see many beautiful new shapes. We hung out with our "competitors" (Danny Hess and Grain) who don't seem like competitors at all. Its funny but we all have the same dream for the surfboard industry. To make beautiful functional surfboards that last. We are all stoked on each others boards. The great thing about the Sacred Craft expo is that it has a community feel to it. Absolute legends of the surf industry stop by and talk to you and ask how your doing etc. Its also great to meet in person people we know online. John Peck stopped by and hung out for a little while and shared his awesome surf experiences.

New Build

2009-03-30T14:31:00.001-07:00

First you get some raw Paulownia

Then you mill it into 1/8 strips

Put the skins together

Get a master shaper like Ryan to shape a

9'4 squashtail

Next step will be to attach the skins to the core.

We'll be using our new Venturi Vacuum pump for that

This whale has been is Santa Barbara harbor for a week. Its the same one that was here last year. The weirdest thing is that it never ranges more than about 150 yards. It just hangs there right in the middle of the boat lane.
