Amazing boards for days <3
that middle one almost looks like a thumb
thumbs are really really cool
everyone should ride a thumb
you can hang five
you can go faster than any thruster
you can turn really hard and not slip out
they are just amazing and i love them

MY FAVORIITE BOARDS OF ALL TIME
BOARD #1, 5'8 Russ Hoyte twinnie, I have caught some of the most epic waves on this board. Too bad it has been sold and I'll probobly never see it again
BOARD #2, 5'8 "Thumb" created by Peter St. Pierre, shaped by Malcom Campbell. This board has magic just buzzing around it. I have never caught a bad wave on this board!
BOARD #3, 6'4, four channel Caster, A legendary label and a legendary board, whenever it is huge you will see me charging on this board. I feel like I have no fear of not making a drop on this board. It slices through water like a sharp knife cuts through warm butter
BOARD #4, 5'4 Andrew Cowan model. Shaped and designed by myself, this board is magic under my feet I can go anywhere on any wave on this board it is literally the definition of the perfect board for me.
BOARD #5, 5'8 Pearson arrow speed dial-er fish. This is my go to board in any sort of clean wave under double over head. I've ridden this board in ankle high slop, I have ridden this board in double overhead perfect point break, it always makes me smile. also can lay down the biggest cutbacks known to man on this board
BOARD #6, 5'10 Bonzer5. This is the Machado Chile bonzer, and there are only two in the world. One is Rob Machado's and one is my favorite, and a Surfy Surfy demo board. I have put this board in every position you can on a wave and it has prevailed over 95 percent of the most hardcore situations I have been in with it. It's incredibly fast, loose, and has a ton of drive more than most boards ever. I simply love this board

MORE FROM "THE KING OF THE SURF HIPPSTER'S" BLOG
"i rode this board in europe several times last year. something just wasn't quite right. a straight rail line and slopey rocker made it ride long and sluggish. i thought cutting a diamond tail might give it a little spark. take the rail line down an inch or so while leaving the stringer intact. so i did. but it just looked ridiculous with this long narrow nose and a snub tail. so i decided to cut the nose off too.
my friend wanted me to trace the nose off his favorite fish and make a template. i thought that was quite frivolous and the only logical way to finish it off was a diamond nose. symmetry.
it looks ridiculous but it was really fun to ride. really immediate and responsive and no swing weight in the nose.
then this dude cut two tiny holes in my knee and stuck scissers in one hole and a camera in the other, moved some shit around. my knee still doesn't really understand what happened. i haven't been able to to try it again. possible pt. 2 when my knee figures shit out." -DANE REYNOLDS, he doesn't capitalize his i's either !!. he also does crazy stuff to old boards like me just come to my garage and u'll see all of my on going projects

This board is so clean I want it just to have such a clean board









This is a 6'0 channel islands fort knox. Also known as taylor knoxes contest board (he likes bonzers alot so he incorparates alot of those aspects into his contest board). This auper cool thruster includes a deep double concave for water organization under your feet. A tri fin lokbox setup so you can order your bamoboo tri fin set and a cool al merrick lam so you just feel cool, but it was glassed at moonlight so you can feel cool for alot more years than normal

The Seed
I wanted to post this board because it has been in Surfy Surfy for far to long. It is one of the best boards I have seen come into the shop, and no one even acknowledges its existence so now I am. It is a 5'8 Ryan Sakal seed. Ryan Sakal is a second generation shaper and knows what he is doing. He makes great little transition boards for everyone and I do think that everyone should ride one of his boards at least once in their lifetimes!

Two Crazy Epic Channel Bottoms
These here be two crazy epic channel bottoms. I wish these boards could both be in my quiver but me not getting paid comes into effect there haha. The skinnyer shorter one is a custom for Jp, and the fatter one is for sale at Surfy Surfy. They both have crazy epic matching airbrushes too!!! (Sorry these boards are so glossy you can see me in a photo ooppps) Oh and the shoter one is a 5'8 and the longer one is 5'10.

Moon-Egg
This here be a moon-egg with the og (original gangster) moonlight logo. These eggs are not "put put" boards they are made to fly down the line and smack the lip. This one has a great orange resin tint which makes it go faster

Mostest Coolest Thruster Out There?
This is the mostest coolest thruster out there. :) (yes I know I'm grammatically incorrect I like it better this way.) Campbell Brothers version of a thruster (Channel Islands almost copied this board I'll post a picture of the Fortknox and this board side by side they look exactly the same even the contours are the same.) Just think of it as a supercharged thruster! Also it has Peter St. Pierre's awesome airbrushing.

Bunyip Dreaming Board
I'm posting this board because every surfer in the whole world should have one. Channel bottom thrusters are probably the most magical of boards out there. Chris Christenson shaped this one, and he makes very fun little boards. He shapes boards for Mitch's surf shop a friend of Surfy Surfy's.
