Dimensions: 7'4 x 21 1/4 x 2 3/4
[completed in November 2016]
The story: the way I met Jeanne is very interesting: I saw her walking down the path of my favorite break with my ex... I mean my ex-board :) That Walden was very dear to me. One of my favorite board ever and I recognized it right away. Turned out that Jeanne is a local from my own break and that is how we became friends.
The shape: Jeanne was ready to transition from her (my) Magic Walden to a shorter shape. We decided for a funboard shape that would allow her to comfortably drop in in steeper waves (a bit more rocker). The goal was also to have a board she could try some maneuvers with. I added a diamond tail and some channels to make it fast !
The artwork: Jeanne was not very decided on any artwork, except for the part of something "feminine". I had a beautiful Boardlams printed fiberglass with flowers left from a previous project (the artwork was designed for Maylane's board by her grand-father, see board #125). My glasser, Dewi at Tigerglassing did a wonderful job integrating the printer fiberglass to the purple paint job I had done in preparation.
