Sign of Good Times Ahead









Surfy Surfy Surf Shop celebrates it's 6 month anniversary with the installation of our new sign. The letters were individually handcarved by shop co-founder Jon Pankopf. We repeat, these are handcarved letters, they were NOT milled on a cnc machine.
All summer long Jon painstakingly carved, whittled, sanded and coated all 10 solid wood letters until his fingers were bloody, his back hurt and his nose clogged.
The effort was well worth it and we are super stoked. We hope you will come down and check it out in person.
Thanks to surfers Mitch and Marty Talcove of Exotic Hardwoods

  10. Checked it out in person today. Appears to have been made out of one solid piece of wood as the grain in the letters line up. Impressive work guys.
