Today is the 2 year anniversary of Surfy Surfy. I’m stoked, blogging is good clean nerdy fun. The best part has been meeting all the other surf bloggers out there. Check out the links in Surf Blogs section, there are over 70 blogs linked so far. If your blog isn’t in there let me know.

Last week we started out with 4 stock Mandala surfboards and are now down to this final one.
This board was handshaped (no shaping machine) out of a King Mac blank by Manuel Caro in San Francisco exclusively for our shop. It features a tapered stringer which gives the board a nice springy flex out of bottom turns.
The Lokbox fin system is adjustable 1/2″ forward and back so you can dial in your set of AK4’s by Rainbow Fin Co. just the way you like it. Note the tapered stringer.
The forward fins are single foiled and the rear fins are double foiled. There is chocolate in my peanut butter.

This board looks lonely. It needs a good home.

From the modern rocker, crisply foiled rails, adjustable fin system and custom blank, this is NOT a retro surfboard. This is the 21st century baby.
