Album Surfboards

It’s also nice so people can clearly see you’re on a weird ass board while paddling around too. It’s like a nice big sign saying I’m here to chatDon’t do it! That crooked nose is important (for parking lot lookyloos to ask to question about)…
Ok @griffinsurfboard what about these, they are the next set of fins I’d like to try in my mini ghost

OK, let me try again.
His surfing looks precise and clean.
Clearly whatever he's riding suits him best.
im just fckin with ya man. i don't really get the jack freestone + album thing. the guy rips but always kind of looks like he's overpowering his equipment and i don't think the flatter, wider alt boards are helping in that regard.
From a marketing perspective, pushing Freestone I bet Album is trying to develop another niche clientele, the younger alternative ripper that Kerr doesn't really attract(too old).
I agree he seems to over-surf his boards and Albums boards are no different for him. I wonder if sales are down or if they sense the Album hype is on the wane.
I dunno. Someone mentioned that Matt has a troop of kids, so I suspect he just wants to get all he can get right now while the hype is strong. Adding a new product category, aka thrusters(LOL), with a HP guy like Freestone, is just smart. I don’t know if anyone is buying their collab freewing model, but it was certainly worth a shot. If it works, could add 5-6 “new” thruster models in next couple years, and then endless variations. I mean, just look how many twin models they have!
Those who base their business on the hype-wave and try to get the next one or milk it all the way to the inside... historically not a good business plan. Unless you don't mind cut and running.
Producing poor glassing and not giving a fck about it, would give me nightmares if it was my business but

He knew the hypetrain was hitting, lots of people don't know any better, and lots of free money was floating around looking to get spent..and people aren't as emotionally connected to free money as they are with money they earned.Those who base their business on the hype-wave and try to get the next one or milk it all the way to the inside... historically not a good business plan.

He seized the moment and capitalized on it in a major way.
Eventually, like the keel fish hype, the twin fin hype will be over, and he is going to have to find another way to market.
Everything is cyclical.
Who give's a sh!t what's "in" right now......or how it looks. If it's fun, ride it.
Riding the same sh!t over and over gets boring.
