So this here is an early/first generation Sidecut

So this here is an early/first generation Sidecut Fish I shaped for Garth Dickenson 20 odd years ago when I was just starting my sidecut journey.
It was shaped from a paper template my brother in law Peter Woods @_out_of_the_woods_ did for me from a Skip Frye fish Tom Curren was holding and riding at Albatross Jeffrey’s Bay way back.
He scanned and printed it out at his place of work at the time which was of a graphic designer.
Thanks Pete,talk about open up a rabbit hole!
The template ended up with a small incut/sidecut in the last say 6 to 10 inches or so which when drawn up on a blank looked quite good so that coupled with my snowsurfing is how the Sidecut journey started for me.
That and my recollections of Rodney Balls master shapes and Dimitrije Milovich,s original Winterstick snowboard from 1976.
This picture is of original art by @andrewkidman and is a post of his promoting a show he is doing up in Murwillumbah on the far North Coast of NSW on the 16th of November.
The board is featured in his classic film Glass Love which will be the first film to run at the show.
Check it out!
