You are ON. I have a couple xtra Skills if you need one for the day . Only weird thing is my room is super narrow but I fit in it! STOKED TO HAVE YOU! I am working on one other “suprise shaper” if he commits we will have QUITE A SHOW!!! THANKS, ACE
Ace, sorry it has taken a while to get back to you. I am glad you told me about the Aquazar last week and Ice Nine Foam Works would definitely like to be involved. We can supply our Cane blanks for the shaping.
Also, I wanted to elaborate on what DeadShaper mentioned. Ice Nine has offered to work with schools, providing blanks to demonstrate and teach shaping. We also have our apprentice program that is offered to shapers that have someone they are mentoring the art of shaping. We will provide reject blanks that can be used for practice. Just return the blank after it has been shaped and we will give you another one.
Thanks,
Just curious…how narrow is “super narrow”???
ACE…
I will bring enough blanks for any demo’s as well as some to be raffled off. Any proceeds will go toward your efforts…

I overheard that Ricky Carroll is going to set up his trailer/shaping/viewing room for one of these in Florida soon.
Thanks Ken… I shaped a Ice9 blank and did a critic of the blank on another thread. I will be selling the shape/blank to the highest bidder. That ought to be interesting $5.00? who knows, write your amount and put it in the box.
Just so you know “weather or not” this thing is gonna happen. I just got off the phone with Jim “Mouse” Robb and he said he will be stopping with his scrap book, around 10am?. if you want to meet someone who has seen it all from planks to today don’t miss this. Also I am working on getting LOOONG time shaper John Holly to shape one up. He said he will, I hope so. I still have space for vendors and the “swap meet” is still on. A little water never hurt a surfer.
Im a little confused…is the live shaping going on at the location on the flyer(where the booths are), or somewhere else?
Cant wait!

The shaping will be IN the OB surf shop where i have a shaping room with windows. The other parts of the event will be in the parking lot that is next to the shop. Corner Newport and Cable, Ocean Beach. All one place. Easy to find Sunset cliffs blvd. right on Newport left side of street end of block. Across the street from Willy’s shoe shine…
Thanks ACE for putting this event on, i enjoyed speaking with you guys about shaping and watching Greg mow foam! I hope there will be a next one sometime soon.

Thanks to everyone who showed up . Between the weather and the Charger game was not sure what was going to happen. Here are some pics… Hey Greg you left your template in my room…
ACE,
Thank you for putting this thing together. I picked up some blanks form Ken @ Segway. And I got to watch Greg L shape!
Thanks!
ACE,
Thanks for putting the Aquazar on. Even with the game and the weather, it was still great to meet and talk with new people. Ice-Nine is glad we were able to participate in the first one and look forward to the next ones.
Go Chargers!!
Chris
Sorry I missed it…looked like some good ol’ fashion fun !
Maybe the next…let me know. H
Ace,
Thanks for putting this on. I enjoyed meeting lots of people and talking surf (I don’t get to do that much in AZ). The shaping room wasn’t near as bad as you led me to believe. I just wish I’d noticed that the racks were adjustable. Thanks again for a nice afternoon. Everyone should try to attend the next one. You’ll be stoked you went.
ACE,
I’m sorry to have missed the event, especially Jim Robb. I’ve not seen Mouse in MANY years. So glad he is still around. He is quite a man. Say hello to him, for me.
Thanks Ace!
I heard Joey showed up later, so that was good. I enjoyed it, and
think it is a good foundation for another one, even bigger and better.
Kinda bummed I forgot to get some OB Chilli from Butter’s rig, darn!!!
Thanks,
George
