Almost finless "Slipstick" takes shape

Started working on this board a couple months ago, I set out to make an almost finless foam Alaia type board kinda like the Wegener Bluegill or the Anderson Slide and Glide...

I used insulation foam again and came up with this outline... 

After glueing 4 layers together I came up with a nice fat blank and started shaping...

Once I got it the way I wanted it I started throwing some art on it...


Decided to do something fun with the tail...

Updated my logo...

Started foiling some fins from an old broken skateboard deck...

In the process of glassing it now, should be done soon!!!

Stay stoked!!

Adaptive Surf Project part 2

Thanks to many generous donations, our first goal of having three adaptive surfboards built for some local surfers with spinal cord injuries, in the Myrtle Beach SC area, has been achieved! 







The project called "Adaptive Surf Project" is now on phase 2, "10 for 10." We are now planning to build 10 more boards for $10,000. Any donation is appreciated and will go directly to paying for these custom boards to be built. Now that we have the first 3 built we will be looking for volunteers to get together once a month or so, (or even more frequently) to help these guys surf. We are hoping to get them out in the water a lot this summer.  Please share with your friends! And check us out on Facebook.com/adaptivesurfproject
