Light Bee

5'6 Bumblebee/Light Vehicle mix for Lennart.
Love to deliver boards by hand and see the smile on their face when looking at it! That pays it all!

There's something about...

...this board! I just love it!

Used DK Quad for sale

A friend is selling his DK Canard Quad 6'0, shaped by DJ Kane during one of his trips to Portugal and glassed by BoardCulture. Board has a grey tint both sides with black pinline and a nice polish to finish. Lokbox fins included.

Board was only ridden a couple times and has no dings or much pressure dents. It's almost new!

I don't remember the full dims but it's around 6'0 x 20" 1/2 x 2"1/2. Plenty of foam under the chest while keeping the rails thin enough for nice carves!

And the price is just perfect for the shape and condition... just 450 euros.

Manila Surfboards Design

As many of you read a couple weeks ago, Malcolm Campbell was in Portugal shaping at Manila’s factory.
Antonio “Manila” Antunes is the founder and shaper of MSD Surfboards (Manila Surfboards Design). Manila started surfing in the early 90’s and in 1998 he built his factory near Aveiro, North of Portugal. He shapes mainly shortboards and shapes them really well but his interested goes beyond them. He has been working with Malcolm for a few years and also had the honor of having Ian Zamora and Chris Christenson shaping at his factory and sharing important knowledge and experience. All the work with those shapers and a great understanding of surfboard dynamics got him the second place at the European Fish Fry that was held in Portugal, back in 2008 with an awesome Twin Keel.
Manila is a great shaper and a nice guy and will shape my next board which I’m sure will be a blast!

You can know a bit more about Manila and his work at http://www.msdsurfboards.com/

Now something to please the eye, Bonzers, hand shaped by Malcolm, finished by Manila and his crew.
