Isn’t that what the dumbster behind every surf shop looks like? Who painted the stripes on that twin fin?
That’s a cruel joke, epac. Funny, too. Mike
Hey Guys finals kept me kind of busy but i am back now. I said it before and i will say it again, Pauls fish blew my mind. It rode way better than i could have ever imagineded. I got one of my lifetiem waves on it. The only problem with the fish was that it was hard to make it to the water. So many people would ask questions about it when they saw it that it would take at least twice as long to get to the beach. Darren
did you own it? do you still have it?
why do they throw out boards? were they broken?
I believe it was a joke… nobody throws out boards like Paul’s.
Im still wiping off the drool on my keyboard from staring at your fish. Holy rusted rock Batman. Its a master piece and I will own one some day. One question, how much size can they hold and how are they in the steep sections. The reason Im asking is because my fish does not like anything overhead and its side fins are much larger than the ones shown, so it seems. Keep up the good work.
you have to look in the dumpster to see what’s inside. I’m a refuse inspector for the C.I.A.
I love the Board! Paul’s the hero for letting go of his own creation. He donated one of his first custom hollow surboards that he made to SWAYLOCKS for a $20.00 raffle ticket. That speaks volumes. Anyone who has the desire should give Paul a call and place an order. One day we will look back at this time and say “Man, I should have gotten one while I could have”.
Thanks Paul, for the standard in craftsmanship.
I looked again. Didn’t see any of my boards in there. I’m crushed…
Here’s a few of mine (I also owe homage to PJ–he is the man!):
I have spent the last two years working on a hollow board model with balsa rails. It has been an evolution from the concept of using recycled wood to create a rideable surfboard and has ended up as a 6'4 balsa railed fish. i will post some photos on here soon, the disadvantage with using wood is the increased weight which gives the surfboard a different ride to a polyurethene blank based board. The float of the board is comparble to that of a longboard due to the hollow chambers inside the board but it has the manouvrabilty of board that is 6 foot long. One of the main problems i have faced with the development of these boards is the price of balsa wood, which is extremaly high. As development continues i will post more photo's and ideas.
