  6. Whoa, early 90's flashback with the flame job airbrush, lol. Pottz ruled!
    The board looks great Wayne. Frank has no excuses but to blame the archer not the arrow!

  7. David,
    Yes, this board is a modern tribute to that era. That was the hey day of the Modern LB. Frank now has alot of choices from one arrow.

    Frank, I enjoyed the killer slab last night. Yummy! Thank you!

  8. Right on Wayne! Glad you enjoyed it.
    Took her out today for dawn patrol. Super smooth entry, like butter! The swell was weak for the most part & the tide didn't help much either. But the few that I got were really sweet! Just hope we get some swell with some push so I can really see what she has!
    It really felt great being out there! Good Times!
    Thanks again Wayne!

  9. Frank,
    Did a quick surf check today on the way in to the shop and the surf looked like your Le Machine would have worked great today on the combo wedges. Not sure if you are getting the same swell but it looked like some good sw with a combo west corners. Did you get out today?

  10. Hey Wayne,
    Reports said 3-5' but more like 2-4' and super inconsistent on larger sets. But still not much push. Went with the 375 quad setup. But still Good Times!

    1. tony, if my memory serves me correct, it was around 9' x 21.5" x +2.5". frank weight was approx 150lbs. I always loved to shape very progressive longboards. for me they are a completely valid design spectrum, they have lost some popularity to the more traditional rooted longboard type shapes.
