Bacon Bits
Marlin Bacon is one of the surf industry’s best kept secrets. He is one of those rare guys who can do it all; shape, glass, fin and sand. This is his personal board. He made the fins out of balsa wood and man, they are insanely light. The color work is a resin tint foam stain “cheater coat” and then glassed “clear” with single layer 5 oz. Sweet!

April 11, 2006nothing’s better than seeing a true artist work. Obviously he’s not doing it to get famous, or rich. Amazing! My life is better because people like that are able to do what they do.
