When last did you speak to your surfboard shaper?
Do you think you would ever have the opportunity to chat with any of the world’s most renowned surfboard shaper/designers to discuss your physical and local surf requirements, whether as a beginner, competent surfer or professional? These days you buy a board off the rack and hope it goes unreal, right? In most cases it will because these days the quality of local surfboard design and construction is pretty damn good, everywhere!
But...One thing is still missing...
Something intrinsic to the stoke of buying a new surfboard...Something surfers of yesteryear took for granted...What is it? Working directly with the shaper of your choice from anywhere in the world, and then hanging out with the local craftsmen who will complete your new customised NEV surfboard. It is...
