Jarvis? lol,.. IMHO, Dennis is a good shaper, he's shaped me some good boards in the past but his shaping methods are not in the same league. Dennis is an artist that shapes, his artistic style makes for not very consistent shapes albeit they look aesthetically nice.
Oak is more like an engineer that has worked with many other top shapers team riders and surfers over the years that he can mahtematically formulate a magic custom from the ground up. And can hit the mark everytime. May cost more but in the long run you save time and money. Believe me I spent some major time and money trying to get my magic boards shaped.
Thanks fellas! Dennis is my hero! Does he still shape full on? I havent seen him around in a long time. Does he still own Spyder? Or is Dickie the new owner? Someone mentioned that he is taking over Spyder.
LOL, the last time I actually got a REAL Spyder (actually watched DJ shape) it took him 15 mins to shape my board and he only measured the board once. He was running up and down the shape all jacked up. The board looked ok and actually rode better than it looked. But the entire tail half had a 3/8" twist! LOL..
He still owns Spyder don't know for how long...
I would love to order a board from you soon... need to unload some old boards.
OAK MAKES THE BEST BOARDS IN THE SOUTH BAY!
