12′ Jim Philips surfboard. Didn’t fit in the rubout room very well but I got it done somehow. Epic stringer work! The guy who picked it up said it’s a rider and not a wallhanger, so shoulderhoppers beware!

Hey JP have you finished that 9′ CC swallow tail glider thing from a few blog posts back and ridden it yet?

January 12, 2009I am the owner – I asked Jim to replicate a Malibu Chip, complete with period fin. I custom ordered the stringer layout and, knowing Jim’s woodworking skills, asked for figure eight stringers. He truly is “the Genius”, I couldn’t be more stoked….and thanks to the Moonlight crew for all the resin.

Those figure eight stringers must have been a real pain in the arse to get right. And boy did he get them right! Wow. Looks great!
