Ghost Knife Laminate




Just finished laminating the deck patch on this monster. The bottom is a gun metal gray and the deck is a lighter smoke gray. A slick white pin line will separate the two. I have one more layer of cloth to go on the deck and might add a little more pigment to make the deck a touch darker. If the Sportel's could weigh in here I would appreciate it. Should I go darker on the deck or keep it the way it is???

The Waiting Room



This has nothing to do with water or surfboards, but some of my customers may feel like they are sitting in the waiting room. Fugazi says, "that's okay, we feel your pain."

Shaped Ghost Knife




It slices, it dices, it juliennes. This board will have plenty of wave bite with a slight V in the pin tail, softer rails transitioning to sharp, and a nose concave just in case, i don't know, someone wants to walk the plank.

Shaped Secret


The Secret is shaped minus the single to double concave running out the tail. It's a very clean and simple shape, I can see why it is such a hit for Firewire. To quote the guy I am shaping this for "We don't need no stinkin' squash tails."

mini-bob



Yes, it is a strange shape, but in some ways there is more to love. I even gave her a heart. Now I'm just waiting for a swell...
