Little custom 5,10 Sidecut Fish for Kaito. On thi Little custom 5,10 Sidecut Fish for Kaito. On this one I have gone back to using my original Sidecut Fish template from 1998 and adjusted the sidecut through the back third by making it a bit longer than the original to get it up to speed. It was shaped out of one of the original kneeboards fish blanks @surfblanksaustralia that Midget Farrelly designed and made way back when the fish thing got popular again in the mid to late nineties. They are great blanks to shape fish from due to his brilliant design skills and nice to go back to after all these years. Thanks Midget! Quality glassed by Ben @rawsurfboards
A 9,0 Sidecut Round Square I shaped for Boots Garr A 9,0 Sidecut Round Square I shaped for Boots Garrard while I was down @joymillsurfboards in Victoria. This design is intended to do long drawn out carves something that is possible down there and something Boots is well capable of. The other shot is just something I noticed outside the shaping room after a passing shower. Nature is so complex and simple at the same time!
Personal 8,0 Sidecut Round Square mini keeled thru Personal 8,0 Sidecut Round Square mini keeled thruster with a standard 6 and 4 ounce glass mixed with a layer of Kevlar to form the flextail. This one was half shaped here in Bega NSW then transported to @joymillsurfboards in Torquay Victoria then finish shaped,glassed and finished at JoyMill over the last two weeks while I was there shaping and testing my stuff in some great waves. Big thanks to my friends there at JoyMill for their help and support while down there.

Support local Australian businesses like @joymillsurfboards to keep the dream alive!!💪
New 8,0 Sidecut Round Square getting laminated @jo New 8,0 Sidecut Round Square getting laminated @joymillsurfboards by @kentafergusson and test track area. I have been riding a 9,0 Sidecut Round Square flextail with glassed on thruster mini keels on which I tried a new style of flex by cutting a slot around the side and back of the rear fin to allow more flex but this prototype style flex has proven tricky as it has cracked twice now and I have now repaired and strengthened it again and will see what happens to it over the next couple of days/sessions. A bit of test sessioning down here in Victoria has been great to see what goes on with this style of flextail as far as load and release strength ratios. Somewhat of a learning curve. 🙂
Surfing and shaping a few down in Torquay @joymill Surfing and shaping a few down in Torquay @joymillsurfboards is a good time!

Custom handcrafted 6,5 x 20 7/8 x 2 3/4 Winged Swa Custom handcrafted 6,5 x 20 7/8 x 2 3/4 Winged Swallowtail twin plus trailer keel. The fins are of my design by @true_ames and were designed 5 years ago to be somewhere between a standard twin and a fish keel for maximum drive and hold but still provide that fast loose twin fin feel. The little keeled trailer helps with a little bit of hold and direction thru turns. Customise your ride.
