Got a new crop of handplanes shipping out. Look for them at Shelter, Thalia Street, and Wetsand surfshops.

Could be a handplane for bodysurfing, could be footwear. This handplane is made out of the scraps of paulownia left over from making alaias. Erin at Shelter Surf Shop prompted me to make these. I thought it was a pretty good idea, as the wood is so light and corky it feels like you hardly have anything strapped onto your hand. I’ll have one of these along with some other boards at the Thalia Surf/ Insight demo day this friday May 8th.

This is from a recent show I had at Shelter Surfshop in Signal Hill. Thanks to Shelter , RT Thomas (movie), Tyler Warren (logos), DJ Neal (music), and everyone who came for making it a great evening. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to leave all the boards at the shop so some of them had to find new homes. The squaretail single with the starfin and Tyler Warren logo went to Thalia St. Surf Shop and the orange and green quad and twinfin to it’s right went to Huntington Surf and Sport.
