Designed and shaped by Jesse Fernandez as an all around board that can handle the size of Puerto Rico and the average days of Panama City Beach FL. Designed to be ridden as a single fin, quad, or 2+1 setup. Also my first resin pin lines, gloss and polish finish!
Began its life as a longboard, turned into a Mini Simmons! Gotta make lemonade out of lemons! Glass on, hand foiled keel fins, wide, parallel outline, and a flat rocker give this thing tons of speed, while the thinned out rails and hip in the tail outline give it enough release to make it an absolute blast on small waves. Just ask Matt, he is tearing it up on this thing!
A reject blank that was about to get thrown away was rescued and turned into this small wave machine! This got me back in the swing of things after a pretty long break from building boards...tons of fun to shape without the worry of screwing up an expensive shape, and even more fun to surf!
Designed to get someone back into surfing on mush Virginia Beach days, this EPS/epoxy board has plenty of foam to get you going, with enough rocker and curve in the outline to make it surprisingly maneuverable. Amazing painting by Abigail Chapmon
Built for a beginner, this board is great for mushy east coast days. Flatter rocker combined with a single pivot fin give it speed with maneuverability
Needed a board for myself! This thing is a blast, with plenty of foam under the chest to get into the waves, a solid amount of rocker and a pulled in tail to help hold in steep, faster waves. The board provides a great combo of the cruisy, single fin flow, as well as the ability to turn on a DIME and really whip around. Comfortable in waist high to a couple feet overhead...and maybe more than that!
Inspired by the Tomo Vanguard, this board is a small wave machine! Can catch a ripple, has speed for days on gutless waves, and Nathan absolutely rips on it! My first time working with EPS foam, channels, and carbon inlays. Going to have to make one of these for myself!
Couple grom boards headed over to Rota Spain! Had fun with the paint jobs on these
Wide, thick board headed to Panama City Beach and Puerto Rico, surprisingly maneuverable for the amount of foam it has! Awesome artwork by Abigail Chapmon
Actually looks pretty good for being called the Ugly Duckling! This 4'9 oversized body board is the result of a shape gone bad, but has turned out to be a blast! Surprising amount of foam, and with a super wide tail and huge glassed on fins (made from fence board haha!) this thing flies down the line once your up. Lots of rocker in the board makes it hard to get in early, but surprisingly lively once you are!
Heavy, old school noserider that does its job! Hull bottom with a spooned out nose concave, pinched 50/50 rails, and nice kick in the tail help this board stay with the wave as you walk out to the nose. Glassed extra heavy to give momentum and that great glide feel! And obviously, with the awesome artwork by Abbey Chapmon, you will be the envy of every 7 year old girl on the beach with this!
Built this because I wanted a shortboard that I could take out on the longboard days...and it does that and more! Basically took as little foam out of the blank as possible, with a wide tail for speed and a little flip in the nose to keep it from biting. Can't describe how much fun this board is! So fast down the line, catches waves as small as ankle biters and holds well in the big stuff. Puts a huge smile on the face of anyone riding it...don't think I've ever not had fun on this board. Drawing is the diagram of the power plant on a Navy Frigate, inspired by this board being a wave catching machine!
My first board! Whole thing, start to finish! If Austin Walker didn't have a shop down the street, there's no way I would have pulled this off. Every weekend I'd go down and ask him what I did wrong and how to fix it, and after 2-3 months I ended up with a functional surfboard! The feeling of surfing something I had made, or watching somebody else surf it, was one of the best feelings I'd ever experienced...and I'm still hooked!
