Back on the wheel...

After a while of not glassing boards I find myself back behind the squeegee pushing resin around on this collaborative project between me and JonBless.  Hollow wooden casper lofted by Jonbless, foiled and refined by J.Clams. Keeping the fins true to Simmons design, double foil redwood fins crafted and refined by JonBless. I'm a sucker for a good collaboration.

Simmons Bible

a visit from RK and Casper

On their recent trip to Cali, Bubbie and Dutchie convinced the swift mover himself Richard Kenvin to come back the big apple. Dutchie and I got to surf with homeboy in what turned out to be a rad session. RK brought "Casper" which is a 5'1" Hydrodynamica test pilot modeled after a Bob Simmons Spoon. Watching what RK was doing with this board was mind boggling. We did a bit of board shuffling in the water and RK and Dutchie ended up surfing the peanut butter 5'5" Twin Keel that I shaped a while ago and I was pleased that they had nothing but great things to say about it. The 7'6" quad "Fish Simmons" that Josh Hall shaped for us ended up getting a couple battle wounds but other than that the session we had was the best I've had in a while. 

Tons O' Fun
