Nozza dont ride it put it on the wall, be worth plenty in years to come,i rode the 10.6 once not for me im afraid but i reckon it will mark a place in sup history somewhere down the track,tis in beaut condition.

Thank you Lucyloo for the reply.
I will re fin it and ride it at least once.
It is nice to see someone else noticing SUP history passing by.

The 12 foot gun is an amazing board in every type of wave. Run it as a thruster and it rips
Every time I ride it, guys eyeballs open wide up when loading up for a bottom turn as it is a pretty intimidating board. Amazing glide when getting onto the wave.
Had the 9'2 ft hull ripper many years ago and couldn't quite dial it in.
Blane was ahead of his time with his SUP board shapes but still shapes out of Helleeva on the North Shore.
Long time PSH supporter I'm afraid.

building this 9'6" x 33" now. Wonder if it is for Lorin?

Beautiful piece of work Charlie - work of art.
Honoured to get your reply.
If Lorin doesn't want it, send it our way.
Even if she wants it, send it our way anyway.
First real paddle on the 9'7" in (very) flat water.
















Is Blane still shaping?
Are you still building? - obviously you are.
If this one's still around, could you send it our way too?


Dare I say, Aloha?

Nice day Nozza for your flat water trial. Blane is still shaping and he seems very busy shaping and glassing his boards. Never usually get to see the finished glassed boards unless I glass them. Wish I saw the one you posted. Attached is one from last week I think a 7'10 x 28". Beautifully shaped and remained super light after the planks were added. Will have to request a finished pic cuz it's going to pop with resin.
warmest aloha,
Charlie

Those boards are gorgeous. Some of the nicest veneers I have seen. What I your rates like? I technically owe Lorin a board after I snapped her 10'6 PSH Gun.

Hi Exiled, I am just the vacuum bagger so I don't know rates for a replacement Gun. Email me at surfgearhawaii@hawaii.rr.com and I can explain how to go about getting a replacement board or the rates for vacuum bagging services. I generally work for manufacturers of surfboards and don't have a retail shop. Attached photos of a gun blank Blane gave me and was used for a senior project of a family friend from the mainland. He received an "A" grade ,which according to parents is unusual for this intense requirement to graduate. He did all the work himself under my tutelage.
Also this type board will not break in the surf.

BB30 that is a beautiful looking board!! No wonder the young fella passed with an A grade.... Well done!

The one on Gumtree is a 10'6" Hull Paddler.

My patched up 9'2 bamboo wide ripper still gets run on bigger days or for a solo surf.

Nice job on that board RogueReef!

Phew.......

Love my PSH 12'6.....liked my PSH 9'6.....but was almost as fragile as an egg.....always in the hospital

Pleased to meet you John and happy to see the boards go to a good home. Have good memories of the PSH boards. And some bad ones.

Hi Pete, have you still got the 9'3" ripper I sold you several years back

I purchased that for Russ (the feeze) as a spare in case he broke his 9'3" ripper. He has since sold it but we could get it back for you if you wished.
What are you riding now?
I've got a smik which I am very happy with.
Pete
