The Hectic-ness

The only problem with getting a flow of boards and shirts happening is suddenly there's little time for anything else, like blog posting, surfing- that sort of thing. It's slowly settling into the proverbial well oiled machine state though, Joe has finished the custom orders, there's boards making it into our retail outlets, Geppy has the fin workshop humming along and Richard is off in Japan talking story and showing off a fine selection of planing craft so expect all sorts of updates very soon. In the meantime, here's a really nice post about the Caspers courtesy of Gary up in Santa Cruz.

Surfboard Madness

Another Sacred Craft has happened, and it was a totally fantastic time if utterly hectic. It all was better than we could have hoped with Carl Ekstrom spending the weekend at our booth with his assymetricals on display and happily chatting to all who had interest, RK rolling in with some great new footage, a fine array of the Simmons Planing Hulls that we'd collected from the various Hydrodynamica participants (sorry about the state of the wax) and a whole bunch of very cool people stopping by the booth to check stuff out (enough that I didn't get much of a chance to take photos or wander around). Joe Bauguess made a run up from San Diego and talked story on Saturday as well, and he's really stoked to be behind the planer again. The new Trilobite 3 fin and quad boards are being made, so if you'd like to get on the list for a custom let us know. A call to 619-696-0677 0r 323-706-0308 and we can set you up. The new shirts are happening too, we'll have photos of those up very soon. Thanks Bassy, it was a great show.

Sacred Craft

secret sauce on display

We will be at the Ventura Sacred Craft, booth G3. Come on by and check out the goodies- there will be a range of the new Hydrodynamica Test Pilot Boards and new shirts as well as appearances by Carl Ekstrom and Joe Bauguess over the course of the weekend. Should be fun.

Thread Party

Our good friend Patrick Trefz has made a book based around his excellent film 'Thread', and he's in town to sign it on Tuesday the 12th from 6 on. There will be free beer to drink and art and new visuals to look at along with a range of the new Hydrodynamica Test Pilot series boards. A fun evening undoubtedly, come on by.

Happy Cinco de Mayo. The blog is up and running again because there's good stuff going on like Joe Bauguess arriving back in town today, fired up and ready to shape. There's a new line of t-shirts.
