I’ve been getting updates from the Taco Fish. It spent 7 weeks surfing the west coast of mainland Mexico. Now it’s setup camp in Hawaii for a month or so. I feel horribly landlocked right now, but this line from today’s email chat is making things feel much better…”The board rips in Hawaii”.

SYOB (Shape Your Own Board) is back!
This is Matthew. He came in today and we shaped this 7’10 Egg. He came out with a great new board that he hand shaped while I walked him through the process (and helped here and there).
I’m still working out the kinks (if you know a good liability insurance agent, please let me know!!) but once I do, I hope to make SYOB a regular thing. Let me know if you’re interested and I’ll get you on the info list.

I decided to go with a solid cork tail block. There will be a strip of poplar as the final layer.
