After seeing Luke on his fresh log in the line up (referring to previous post), my CPA John had to have one too, so we set out to shape a 9’0” log inspired by a sweet Ricky Carroll shape. We spent many a chilly morning in The Laboardatory and hacked out a really fun shape just in time for summer. The wide nose and rounded pin tail combo allows for easy paddling and effortless smooth turning. We shaped it from EPS and glassed it heavy so it glides through the flats and should last him a very long time. The dimensions came out as follows:
Length: 9’0”
Thickness: 2 7/8”
Nose: 19” Middle: 23” Tail: 14.25”
And here are a few photos:

May the stoke be with yew!
