aloha

bobby and i sharing a wave a few weeks back. this is on the black n white noserider, never left the nose. photo-greg benoit

xtra foam, xtra materials



i was gunna help my buddy shape his first board, so we took this old like fun board thing that had and stripped the fiberglass to reshape (buy new foam pfff) . but after we stripped the glass we managed to take a few chunks out of the rails and it ended up being too narrow to make the fish he wanted, so after it sat in my garage forever, i put it to use. i made a 6' singlefin go fast model. then glassed it with all scrap fiberglass and mostly some left over resin from this or that project (thats why its all random colors). for the fin i used this old volan fin my dad had from back in the day that was the biggest peice and reshaped it into a nice flex fin...this thing is fun, great for some juicy churches

new and newish noserider BOTH SOLD




this one i finished last week 9'6" noserider. its the same template and concept as the black and white one but i added a longer deeper nose concave, made the rails a little fuller and rounder, thicker, a tad more rocker on both ends, and a more pronounced scoop in the tail. i ended up getting an insane noserider, you hover above the water, when your on the nose, and stay all nessled up with the curl. the board turns super smooth, with the help of the reverse d fin. i love this thing

9'6" noserider..scoop tail long blended super shallow nose concave. black and white 50-50 lamination. black glass on reverse d fin..this thing is soo much fun. nice drivey bottom turns that bring your right to the top of the wave perfectly setup to noseride.
