Marc Andreini Loves to Shape

I was lucky enough to be invited down to Marc's secret shaping lair to be educated on the finer points of hull design. I got to listen to some great stories of how he and Kirk Putnam shaped and rode stubbies throughout the 60's and in the decades that followed---true research and design in the clean point surf of Santa Barbara. I hope I can honor his generosity by shaping a few boards and continuing this special kind of design tradition.

Here's a few photos of Marc shaping my new 5'11" Vaquero...







More photos to come...

  5. Maz...I'm 5'5"/155lbs. This board was shaped for clean Ocean Beach so I wanted it small and maneuverable. Speed acquisition isn't the problem here, it's speed management...
