Greg, I hope you're reading this from beyond- was arguing fin templates on facebook on your behalf last week.

They don't know sh!t about planing area, release or hold.

also the more I learn the more things you were right on, minus concave but we will see--- haha miss you old bastard!

This winter, when I had the chance to ride my (ten, fiteen year old?) 7-4 hickory board at my local without crowds it was working so nicely. This is a board that had the GG elements- totally flat bottom, full length tucked hard edges. It's too short to compete with the longboards when it's crowded so I don't often get a chance to feel its full potential. This winter I've had that chance. Thank god for rainstorms.

I want to make another one but have to sell some of the boards piled up in my garage....

RIP Greg. Hope there are empty point breaks wherever you are.

Still trying to get closure on this tragic loss. I have spent hours combing the web looking for an obit, or some newspaper mention of his accident but there is nothing. Unpossible. Lightspeed. I miss Greg.

Gregory Griffin sur Instagram: "It is with heavy hearts to share the news that the "Fellowship of Fun" creator, Gregory Griffin, unexpectedly passed away from a vehicular-motorcycle collision on July 18th, 2022. Gregory was a loving husband, father and grandfather. There is no doubt he is now shredding waves, barreling down epic mountain bike trails and making things more interesting for everyone on the other side. He will certainly be missed and loved. He definitely was one of a kind. A celebration of life will be announced at a later date. Aloha nui loa, The Griffin Ohana"

wrong year, wrong bike, wrong guy...

So where is the obituary? Everyone gets an obit, it doesn't exist. Now the search resumes.. maybe Greg was a middle name? Still looking... still looking...

I didn’t realize Greg was driving 120 mph on a motorcycle. He must have been around 70 years old.
