Bluenose,
I like the color of the quad. How does the tail end? And your back porch makes me want to drink some cool iced tea and drop a line in the creek out back.
Photos from a phone… sounds familiar, looks amazing !!! beautiful colors and polish
Ken you were saying you can teach what you know, is it possible to book dates would love to come and see you work!!
Avi, Avi, Avi,
Isreal, California, hmmmmmm!
if you can make it… the offer is there, allthough I dont think you can learn much from me , your pretty good yourself!
why did you shut down your shop?
Thanks everysurfer,
The tail is rounded (lost in the lawn) and the resin tint is a mixture of lime green, white and a bit of yellow. Iced tea or anything cold:)

welcome to Swaylocks Danga, board looks great!
i didn't notice the shark-tooth at first... i bet it's easy to find those where you are at
Welcome to Sways, Danga. “Plus on est de fous…”
WOW Ken, that is so clean! i almost said you outdid yourself but then i remembered the wood inlay sunburst board... still, this one is TOP NOTCH! the logo is clean too
thanks chrisp
pulled that logo of the flying fish off the internet
yup I did
the board will be going to Inflight surf shop this weekend (consignment)
Sweet board ken, the shop rang me and said i'd won it in some in store promo, so they said to give you my address and they'll pay for shipping.
Maybe............

"plus on est de fous, moins il y'a de riz? ah ah!
thanks everybody!
Ken, that’s outstanding and i’m pretty sure this one won’t last long in the shop.
Just one thing, though: you don’t seem to be aware that I patented this blue color worldwide (yes, China included). My lawyer will soon get in touch with you about it but I’m sure we will easily settle that matter.
yes yes Mr. Balsa
certanly we can come to some sort of agreement.
since I have perfected your color patern
our people will need to talk
LOL
thanks for the kudos
here is a recent custom glass job i did for a musician friend of mine…all resin tint in the lam…any other questions just ask
https://swaylocks7stage.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/IMG_9910.jpg
nice execution of resin control
how did you keep it from bleeding?
your process please?
Thanx ken this thread is how i learned…its really easy when you think outside the box a bit…Notice there is no black on the laps, when you do not wet the laps you have all the time in the world to do your thing…so first i laid all the black on the board using small cups, with small amounts of resin in them to prevent to much resin pouring out…Once i finished the black i let it cure, after a solid cure i flooded it with red and wet the laps out and finished the tint…the key is to get real good at pouring resin, not too much not too little just enough.
recently had zeph/boarddesign over here making a few boards in ireland he taught me a few things!! :o)
this is a board i shaped with rich pavel last year that i hadnt got around to glassing yet so with a nudge from zeph it got done 8.5oz volan top and bottom with 6oz deck patch
pics are on the phone pre gloss.
it has since been polished by royal
