Our Promise To You

My Environmental Promise: I use Forest Stewardship Council certified woods or woods salvaged from downed trees. All boards are glassed with epoxy resin which is cleaner for our environment and emits 50-75% less Volatile Organic Compounds than polyester resin. In my shop I have moderate ventilation and no need for a mask when glassing. Epoxy is lighter and stronger than polyester. My wood boards are nearly indestructible and should last a lifetime. Each board is quality crafted for strength, durability and concern for our environment.

My Satisfaction Promise: Ride your board for 30 days. If you don't like it, return it.

9'1" Nose Rider

Kolin just picked up his first Blind Dog, a sweet nose rider that will last him for long long time. This came out to 19.5 pounds, 23.25" wide, 3.25" thick, 19.5" nose and 18" tail, with 8 1/2" tail block. Nose and Tail Blocks are Cedar and Balsa. This single fin also has a 30/70 rear foil for more nose life and 1/4" concave running about 1/3 of the board length with rest of board have slight V lower deck profile for maneuverability. The rails are shaped like an Alaia giving it good bit yet easy to turn. Foam boards could never take the rail design we use, just not enough foam left in a rail for any strenght.  This board features a Turtle inlay along with first use of special Turtle tattoo done by Andrea Cecconi, Italy. Here is a link to Andreas work:
