..the board is a 5'7" hydrodynamica "casper" mini-simmons....
Jason sent this pic in early friday morning, pretty sure this little swell rolled in under the radar in the dead of summer...love that.
Demo News:
...last week a group of friends and I rented a trailer and camped out on the beach for four days and three nights...
.
during that time we got a round of golf in, and tons of surf..
.
...on opening day of the trip we were greeted to a burly three foot overhead swell
.
the swell cleaned up late that first evening and for two more days it came in with offshore winds....what a gift..
.
one afternoon dead in front of the campsite, a super clean, crystal clear chest high wave started to break, everyone loaded up their arms with surf stuff and headed down...
.
the afternoon turned into a makeshift December Surf demo day...
.
We had handplanes, homemade alaias, alaia belly boards, the rockaway paipo, pendos, an airmat, and some surfboards (every length and fin set-up imagineable)... it was funny tho, at the site there must have been 8 boogieboards and none of them made it down to the water....I guess wood is the new plastic...there was tons of laughs and miles of smiles... ( I didn't bring my phone so waiting on some pics from my friend) (the airmat stole the show)
.
.
on the boogieboard front, I demo'd my foam and glass bodyboard in awesome beachbreak saturday morning, just crumply chest high peaks that got thicker and thicker the further you rode them.. awesome... perfect day to test the new board...the results? went real well, better then expected, even stood up on a few, finless, and it held fairly well.... I'm in the process of glassing on a little quad cluster right now, and hopefully get it in the water shortly..
