[completed in september 2011]
My husband only rides very specific shortboards: his boards (he breaks one every 5 months in average) need to be the lightest and the fastest on Earth. His shaper is Uncle Mike (Michael Walter) from Oceanside but I managed to convince him to let me try to shape for him. For my third board it was a real challenge to make a performance surfboard for a very picky customer.
The board is a performance shortboard for light weight (my husband is only 130 pounds). It is almost a grom board! It has a pronounced single concave that ends with a double concave.
The red stylized fast flames on the deck were airbrushed. But more importantly, for the first time, it displays my new logo ;)
The glass was done by Global Glassing in Oceanside (S glass superlight), single cloth on top and bottom plus a S cloth tail wrap. They (managed to) put Futures fin plugs in even though the tail was very very thin.
