Surfboard Maintenance






Had to do a little surfboard maintenance for the up coming winter season. Re-wax of the boards and a new True Ames fin setup for the Hoyte longboard.

Inovation, then and now.

John Britten created this amazing v-twin superbike at his home in 1990. The chassis is built onto the engine and is made from carbon fiber. The current Ducati GP 11.1 MotoGP bike uses the same technology today 2011. Amazing!

Hoyte Mini Symster

RR


Russell made me a 5'7" version of a Mini Simmons. At 44 , it took a while to adapt to it being so small and fast. But it is going to be a fun summer board on those days that you need speed on a slow wave.

Santa Barbara's Farmers Market




 I went to the farmers market on Easter weekend to pick up a little produce. The market is always amazing and inspires me to cook more than ever!

Russell has a new custom twin fin called the "Twin Fynzer" I'm hoping to scrape up a little money to get one soon .This one has glass on bamboo fins from Marlin Bacon and Fins 101.

New laminating aprons

I have been making aprons for my friends that make surfboards and use fiberglass and epoxy resins. This is the first apron I made for Russell Hoyte. He's styling now!

Melandri, Checa share spoils!
Really great that Melandri got his first win in WSBK. He really is a good rider and a really tough few years in MotoGP. It's gonna be a great year of racing!
