So these are the tools that I used to create the olo. The Dirty Green dumpster bandsaw would have spoilt the artsy fartsy picture and so did not make the shot. Also been doing some D fins with a view to sell them. Will post when the foil is right.

Olo surfboard build

So this project has been wizzing around in my head for a very long time. Probably close to 10 years. I saved a load of very fine grain Douglas Fir floor boards from a dumpster in Johannesburg and have been carting them around ever since. Seemed like a good time to use them or loose them so in 6 and a half days flat this was born. No plans, no measuring tape, no templates. She is ready foe a skin of epoxy and to say that I can't wait to ride her would be understatement of the century. Thanks to Tom W and Tom S.

Mini Sim for Russell.

Nice custom Mini Simmons for Russell. 5.6 x 23 x 2 3/4 with a red tint bottom and orange cut in deck tint. Custom wide base keel fins and a taped off polish on the bottom to keep the fin area super matt. Had lots of fun with this one.

Barrel Shooter

6.6 Barrel shooter for Madagascar. Based on one of my best all time boards. All colour is in the glass. Fin options!

Madagascar bound Barrel hunter.

Been given the chance to recreate one of the best boards I have ever owned. Customer came to me asking for a smaller, more maneuverable board to compliment his 7.6 single for some duty in Madagascar. I was thinking over some ideas and then it just hit me out of the blue. Scaled up from its original 6.0 to 6.6 and given a modern rocker, foil and bottom contour. Did away with the bumps on the tail as they seemed unnecessary for the wave type. The original board was a smoker. Shaped by Johnny Paarman in the late seventies under the Lighning Bolt- Pure Source label here in South Africa.

9.4 Sunset gun

A trippy 70's style low rocker gun for Sunset reef and Kom. Purple tint bottom with a red cut in deck. First test rides are looking very good. The additive S-wings really come into play on the turns, but it all turns solid and gunny in a straight line. Heaps of paddle speed. Come on Winter!!
