Photo Session #1

Acho que não precisamos de palavras aqui, só as fotos.
Don't think we need any works here, just the photos.

CHEGARAM!!!!!!!

Foi uma longa viagem desde a Califórnia até Lisboa e dois dias de muito stress para as libertar da alfândega, mas agora já descansam em minha casa. Mesmo a tempo do Fish Fry!

It was a long journey from California to Lisbon and two very stressful days to release them from customs, but now they rest at my home. Just in time for the Fish Fry.


Thanks Sean, Mike, Nate and everybody who helped to make this happen!

Hynson BKQ Reviews

Enquanto as Hynson BKQ não chegam, aqui ficam alguns exemplos do que outros dizem sobre elas:

Since the Hynsons BKQ didn't arrived yet, here some reviews done by others:


"I got so much speed off a head high set that I literally felt out of control like the board was getting ready to lift off... top turn, carve, fly past the section that'd stop most mortals, top turn, and drive down the line... I'm still feeling the stoke of that wave even to this day" "The best part about owning this board is I feel like my surfing ability has improved" in http://forum.surfermag.com/forum/showflat.php?Number=1372239


"This is one of the best fish I have ever surfed. It was very fast down the line as would be expected, would turn on a dime, and went vertical extremely well. It was kind of having the best of both worlds, the speed of a fish combined with manueveribility of a standard shortboard" in http://forum.surfermag.com/forum/showflat.php?Number=1024849


"All I can say about the board is it rides better than it looks, and I think it looks pretty damn good. It's fast and extremely manueverable. Squares off the bottom well and cuts back on a dime." in http://forum.surfermag.com/forum/showthreaded.php?Cat=0&Number=1243731&page=6

Stoked

I'm soooooo STOKED!

3 Custom Hynson Black Knight Quads for Portugal.

"The Blue board just has to be sanded and polished...
The Black board needs to be glossed ...
and your board is getting pinlines and will also need glossing"

A espera

O pior de encomendar pranchas feitas do outro lado do mundo é o facto de não podermos acompanhar o trabalho. Assim não nos resta outra opção senão gerir a ansiedade e esperar, pacientemente.
3 Hynson Black Knight Quads estão a ser shapadas e deverão chegar a Portugal a tempo do Fish Fry. Uma é para mim e tem as fantásticas medidas: 5’10” x 20”3/4 x 2”1/2

Quem estiver interessado em juntar-se, ainda vai a tempo.


The worst thing about ordering surfboards from the other side of the world is that you can’t follow the work. Therefore you don’t have any other alternative other than manage your anxiety and wait, patiently.
3 Hynson Black Knight Quads are being shaped and should arrive in Portugal just in time for the Fish Fry. One is for me and has the fantastic dimensions of: 5’10” x 20”3/4 x 2”1/2

Anyone interested in join us, still on time.

I or II

Qual escolher? a Black Knight Quad I ou a II?

A BKQ I foi desenhada a partir da Hynson Twinzer mas modificada para uma melhor performance e controle. Muito versátil para ser utilizada em todas as condições de mar.
A BKQ II sofreu as mesmas modificações da BKQ I mas tem um nose mais estreito e double wings mas mantendo uma boa área no tail para gerar muita velocidade. Indicada para quem quer um surf mais vertical.

What to choose, the Black Knight Quad I or II?

The BKQ I has the same outline as the Twinzer but modified for more performance and control. Great all around fish, very versatile.
The BKQ II has the same modifications as the BKQ I but had the forward nose template pulled in and a double winged swallow but still has a wider tail for surface area to generate speed. Best for a more vertical surf.


Todas as BKQ vendidas através da Magic Quiver vêm com custom made glass fins para plugs Lockbox.

All BKQ sold through Magic Quiver come with custom made glass fins for Lockbox plugs.

United Colors of Hynson

Há quem leve a personalização de uma prancha mesmo a sério. Goste-se ou não é um trabalho fantástico com uma impressionante separação de cores e apenas utilizando resina pigmentada.

Some people take surfboard customization really serious. Like it or not it's an amazing work with an impressive color separation and just by using resin and pigment

Surfs even better than it looks!
