This is a new 6’4″ hull I took up to Sacred Craft in Ventura. It’s made with the R.T. Openface construction for extra flex and spring, same as the Lil Macho board I posted.  Sam George took a liking to this at the show and commented on how it combined the old with the new. That pretty much summed up what I try to do with my boards. Striving to build a better board using common materials, instead of expensive and unsustainable man made exotics. Thanks to my good friend Church for picking this board up. Enjoy!

I recently participated in the Sacred Craft surfboard expo in Del Mar and got to see some really great boards there. There was a lot of wooden ones as well. Tom Wegener came over from Australia and showed a big selection of his Alaias. I am so excited about the possibilities of this little craft that I bought two of his paulownia wood blanks. I hope to out in the water soon on them. Everyone upped the ante at this years show. I can’t wait till next year.

The Sacred Craft Expo is happening October 13th and 14th. Should be a fun time for checking out all kinds of surf toys. I’ll be there, sharing a booth with Line Up Surfboards.
