A couple of long twins from recent months. The daisy twin is still one of my favourite shapes to both surf and build from start to finish especially with glass ons.

Does anyone else remember the choc vanilla snack packs from their childhood? This build constantly reminded me of those delicious cups of goodness.
A yummy 9'4 LM built a few months back start to finish for .pop of .and.friends
I asked Paulie how it was going and this was her feedback so far.
"Surfing my new board feels like gliding on a magic carpet! After just a couple of rides I can definitely see the progression in my surfing from my previous board, especially with my walking to the nose. I thought I would struggle with a new board especially one that was smaller, but it’s been easy to feel out. It's far more maneuverable but still super stable to walk on. It's been an effortless transition on this board and it helps that it’s a true feast for the eyes too!"

Straight from the factory to Rainbow for the maiden voyage on the new 9'6 revival pin shot by
If came to me 3 or 4 years ago and asked for a symmetrical log that was clear with white logos I'd have asked him if hed had a brain aneurysm haha. After spiralling down the asymmetrical rabbit hole were back to dialling absolute basics. Ironing out gaps in Sam's surfing where asyms were just too dialed to particular waves and conditions. Whilst it was incredibly fun returning to basics has vastly improved on the areas Sam was starting to notice the certain intricacies where the Asym may have held him back or felt restrictive. Nothing new under the sun here regarding this log that I've named the "revival" pin. Nicely foiled rails, subtle concave in the nose, healthy amount roll in the tail paired with a touch more tail lift. Sam went straight from the factory to rainbow as he always does and rang me hours later frothing out with some great feedback. After a fin change to the X oss cuts 10.5 the board is ready for a hefty workout in Bali for the next few weeks. Enjoy mate

A recent "start to finish" favourite of mine for good friend Ash at .doods
A 6'2 X 20 X 2â…ť pastel hatchback as her new daily. I've been enjoying these little nuggets lately! Slightly more rocker, more concave, more double through the fin and the low rail has been a good agile combo when paired with the power twin. Definitely a good all rounder for small to slightly bigger swells.

I've been super slack with posting content on here again so here's one from today whilst it's still fresh. A 9'4 LM for Kyle wrapped up in a nice abstract swirl.

I finally got on a twin fin of her own and this board has seen some serious water time already with positive feedback.
Handshaped 5'4 X 20ÂĽ X 2â…ś hipped twin wrapped up in a peach pigment cutlap and white glass ons.
Super happy to have Amy onboard and will have her testing an updated version of the performance electric twin in the very near future.

Here's a little concept and I have been developing over the past couple of months. The idea was to offer a squashed version of the wagon as a small wave, small twinfin board.
Field notes by Sam. The hatchback has come together as the ultimate blend for easy shredding. It Generates speed easily and links fat sections with ease whilst allowing some critical rail action to be had when you put it through turns. I would describe it as a shreddable hybrid twin, perfect for knee to head high. The ultimate summer board transforming slop sessions into highly enjoyable fun.
Sam was riding a 5'10 X 20½ X 2⅝
The board has a decent single into double with a nice low rail, paired with some power twins. I've also been making a few of these as twinzer options, with great feedback also.

This one recently hit the road south to Tassie with who put it through a month of thorough testing in a good variety of waves both big and small as both a straight twin and as a twinzer. It was such a hit it was commondered by Lachie in TAS where It will now remain.
6'0 X 20 X 2â…ť
Low rail, single concave onto spiral vee through the fins.
Field notes and feedback from Lou who surfs goofy footed
- paddles Incredible well
- trims really smooth and generates speed effortlessly
- smooth on the forehand and can get it vertical easily
- back hand goes really well with great hold
- incredible through top turns and cutbacks
Given the feedback I'm going to offer this up as a board design available for order. I have no name for this. It's just my pancake model with a wide point back, more of a shortboardish kind of approach to the design concept.

I've been super slack on the gram again, so here's one from last year that was a surprise Xmas gift from Kony to his partner.

Something I really wanted to achieve this year was expanding my craft and brand into international waters, especially Japan. Thanks to at this goal was achieved. Not a huge deal to most, but to me as a one man band family business this was important.
These three little twins arrived there last week and are the first of a bunch that will head over in 2023.in this batch Is a 5'5 blue berry, 5'6 Carmel custard and 5'7 sage green
Thank you for your support and I look forward to sending more in the new year.
Still 100 percent hand built, start to finish.
