Read the new LS interview with Ryan Lovelace!

"What’s next for Ryan Lovelace? At this point who knows? Every­thing comes up organ­i­cally so I don’t plan too much out aside from when and where I’m going to meet peo­ple."

Lovelace

I love this photo Morgan took of Lovelace with his 11' Glider.  Common belief is that a rock was responsible for Ryan's head trauma, but I just have a lingering suspicion this thing had to be the culprit. 

Pickled She Hull

Fishes

Lovelace unveiled his new fish today, so I figure there's no better time to unveil ours.

It's been on the racks at the shop, but has yet to appear in the virtual world.

The new {Pogie Fish} by Almond.

Greatfhull Sled

Also known as the Dead Sled, Lightner's new super hull via Ryan Lovelace.

I've been hearing about this board from Lightner and Lovelace for 2 weeks and how it was going to blow my mind.  Well, I finally got to see it in person yesterday, and it was every bit as impressive as they had described, and then some.

7 feet and stringerless, insanely thin rails, a more breathtaking outline than a swimsuit model, and flex fin that could only be classified as a slingshot.   I'm waiting for a break in the weather to take my turn on it.

And, if I haven't been relaying enough insanely good information in one day... here comes another gem:

I've been talking a lot with Ryan Lovelace, and we're working on some brand new collaboration hull designs that he is going to shape for Almond.  They're going to be insane...  I'll keep you posted on the progress.

Grass is Greener "She-Hull"

Here is an amazing collaboration that Lightner and Lovelace put together for the Grass is Greener Project.

She is a 7' x 22 1/2" x 2 3/4" Diamond tail hull that will blow your mind.
