5'10" Bottom Feeder

The bottom feeder is done too.  I added an FCS fin plug on the nose of the deck to provide "GoPro" compatibility.  Here are the pics:


Kelly's fins match the blue on the deck perfectly.  In person they really look sharp!


5'10" Biscuit

Ok, the Biscuit is done.  This shape came out great and the glass job is nice and tight.  I'm pretty stoked on the new logos too!  Here are the pics:

5'10" Biscuit & 5'10" Bottom Feeder

I am working on a 5'10" x 17" x 22" x 17.25" x 2.7" board for Kelly Repper.  It is inspired by Lost's new "Bottom Feeder" model.  It features a deep double concave, very low rocker, slight belly, and lightly chined rails giving it a tri-hull planing design.  Here is a pic after the bottom laminate coat...


Also, I am working on a 5'10" x 15.25" x 20.5" x 16.5" x 2.8" board for Ed Han.  It is inspired by Channel Islands' popular "Biscuit" model.  This board features relaxed rocker, a lightly beaked nose, double concave with vee through the tail, and five FCS Fusion plugs for a quad, thruster, or twin option.

 I spent last weekend reorganizing the workshop and building a storage rack to accommodate more boards at different stages of construction.  I also built taller glassing stands which made tucking the laps much easier!

New logo designs!!!

Over the past couple of weeks I've been working with a graphic design artist, Tim Broderick.  He is based out of Jacksonville Beach and has a very impressive portfolio online at http://www.2ndfloormarketing.com/marketing-and-advertising-portfolio/index.php.

I've attached a few logo designs that he has generated for me.  Let me know your thoughts!





So, now I've incorporated his logo font with one of my original designs and this is what I came up with...
