Sacred Craft Surfboard Expo 2009

Thank you all for stopping by the Wood Custom Surfboards booth and saying hello. It was a successful weekend and a great turnout. It was nice to see so many incredible surfboard shapers and surfers all hanging out together having a good time. Congratulations to Pat Rawson for winning the Dick Brewer Shape off!

50th Anniversary Gordon & Smith Party!

Had a great time at the 50th Anniversay Gordon & Smith party at the Wavehouse in Mission Beach. Many friends were there. The surfboard collection was amazing! The place was packed full of people from pro surfers to just about every shaper in San Diego, which most of them have sometime or another shaped for Gordon & Smith Surfboards in their careers of surfboard building. Once again, thank you very much to Floyd Smith, and Larry Gordon for taking so many in under their wings and teaching them how to build a surfboard. Here are some pictures of the event...enjoy!

Gone Fishin'

Went fishing out at the La Jolla Kelpbeds yesterday, and I ended up catching this monster! Over 27" of Bonito! Biggest fish I have caught so far off of a surfboard!

Sneak Peak

Here is a sneak peak of the boards that I will be showing at the Sacred Consumer Surfboard Expo! Take a look. I am about half way done with the resin pinlines and bands.

Preparing for Sacred Craft Surf Expo

Putting the final touches on the boards to be shown at Sacred Craft Surf Expo (Del Mar Fairgrounds; Oct. 10th & 11th). Expect to see The Gypsy, Micah Wood Model and one of my newest shapes, The Wizard.

Stay tuned for a sneak peak of the boards. Now it's time to go put down some resin pinlines and bands. Only the finest on these boards.

First Blog Post

Welcome to my new blog. Here I will be posting the latest news and upcoming events for my company, Wood Custom Surfboards. To start off this blog, here is a big fat ball of wax. This is all of the wax I used for one year. In two more years I should have a nice big snowman...I mean waxman. Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for news that is a little bit more interesting...but not as cool as this future waxman.
