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.

New Almond Fins via "The Gull"

My new, personal longboard fin model, the {Huck Finn}

(foiled by the incredible gull, Gully Allee)

10" tall x 7 1/4" base

A rad keel fin design by Gully and T. AL {single foil}.  4 1/2" tall x 7 1/4" base

Can't wait to see how these badboys look on a future fish. Possibly our new fish design, the Pogie (coming soon)

Here are a few pictures of our friend Mitch scoring in Todos Santos.

Levi's Feedback

Got a text from Levi the other day...'

"This board is positively magnificent!  I just got barreled so many times!"

Stoked for you buddy.... keep stylin'

Levi's Kookumber at Sea

Levi hit the water at blackies this morning on his new 5'10 avocado and brown kookumber model.  It was a little small for shortboarding, but levi was styling as usual.  More pics to come.

Alaia Influence

Hoping to finish my alaia today.  Not surprisingly, everyone who has stopped by while I was working on it has been perplexed beyond belief.  Here are a few rad images of alaias being surfed the way they should.  Let's just hope I can get into waves on mine...

This is one of my favorite music videos.

Alaia Update

Spent about 4 hours on the Alaia today.  Really pleased with how it's coming together.  It has a pretty defined v-bottom, and a flat deck.  I also eased the entry in the nose, allowing the thickness to carry forward a little more, without inhibiting trimming capabilities.

Look from the nose, at the entry foil.

V-bottom up. 1" thick in the middle, 1/4" at the rails.  I set it upside-down here to show the v of the bottom.

Seaworthy on DVD

Just heard that Seaworthy is out on DVD.  Check out this trailer... looks absolutely incredible.

Congrats Adam!

Big congrats to our dear friend Adam Goodman, for a huge Rose Bowl victory today.  (And a great 8 yard catch.)

Quite possibly the best surfing Division 1 football player in the nation... and one of the finest people you'll ever meet.
