hey WA crew,
if your in the market for a quality locally shaped board then give my good mate Ryan Von Dresselt a call- aka 'Von' Surfboards on 0407034977.
Ryan is shaping some of the best sticks in oz at the moment and is just the guy to shape you your modern day surfboard or kiteboard- Ryan is currently shaping surfboards for many of the wa pro surfers too!
ive been getting custom shapes off Ryan for years and is the only shaper in perth that i use! every time i get a great board to exactly what i want!
between now and chrissy you can pick up an awesome deal on custom surfboards and kiteboards.
$575 if ordered before christmas for all custom surfboards and for an extra $125 you can get double glassed if you want to beef it up for kiting- i find his standard surfboard glass jobs fine for strapless kiting so at $575 you are not only supporitng local shapers but getting a awesome board made for YOUR needs and dimensions!
strap inserts can be fitted at extra cost for those wanting straps!
heres a couple of recent boards he's shaped us.
give him a buzz and place an order- you wont regret it!

Lucky man, new model kites.
Nice couple of boards, interesting rounded squashish tail.
Look forward to the review and tube riding photo's.

Ryland,

What foam and glass job are you getting on them?

mike

im not sure on the foam, but as for glass if for surfing 6 top and 4 bottom
if i intend to kite on it either 6 all over or 6 on bottom and 2x4 deck.
always with futures fins boxes
offer is for this month only and only on 2013 profiles- i spoke to him yesterday and he had just over 45 boards already profiled left. once they are all gone the price is back to $720 next year for all new 2014 blanks- which is still a good price for a good locally made custom- carbon rail patches too!
