RIP soul shaper Mike Griffin

RIP soul shaper Mike Griffin. Mike was a popular character in the San Diego surf scene. A soft spoken gentleman who made clean surfboards (usually without logos and unsigned yet still distinct). He was stoked on life and surfing. Mike had been fighting off cancer for years and years.

I got $35 bucks to polish this board in 1994. Took 3 hours!

Surfy Longboard Model Summer 2022

New Surfy Surfy longboard model for summer 2022.

Collab with Surfy Surfy CEO & Janitor, J.P. St. Pierre and surfer/shaper, Todd McFarland.

9’0″ x 22 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ (68L)

Shown here with an 8.75″ Rainbow Fin Co. “Fringe” center fin.

Featuring “Finny” the mascot.

Softer version of the classic square tail.

Tucked edge in the tail for more control and less “washy” bottom turns.

Coke bottle green resin tint with 1/2″ dark wood stringer for a clean and classy look.

Instead of the drill loop we went with a standard leash cup for less fuss when you decide to wear a leash.

New Surfy Surfy logo is a tribute an original 1970’s Sunset Surfboards logo. Groovy.

We call this one the Model T for Todd.

Classic California longboard inspiration with some sneaky extras: tucked tail edge, vee running from the front fin box, smoothly transitioning to noseriding concave.

The Surfy Surfy Todd Model is available exclusively at the Board Source in Carlsbad, CA in 9’0″, 9’4″, 9’6″.

See all Surfy stock at the Board Source
