That's a good list. Can I suggest Dylan Longbottom as one of the etc etc?Shapers: Burch, Tomo, NP Jnr, Joel Fitz etc etc.
Jordy for one, I think he's shaping a little too now again, same with Caio Ibelli. After hearing Caio speak on Dirty water podcast, I think he would actually be a great SITD surfer and my favourite Brazo.Are any of the gals on tour knowledgeable about shaping/design?
so good...Dane on a Burch at a Mexian point was the pinnacle of Stab in the Dark on Acid, or whatever it was called. It melted my eyes.
Not so interested in seeing Taj ride boards made for Kelly. Seems like sloppy seconds...

Dylan rips and is so underrated. His boards are sick and he is one of the hardest working shapers in the game and gets no play really in media.That's a good list. Can I suggest Dylan Longbottom as one of the etc etc?
So all these boards are Dark Arts? What's with surfing always banging the same drum? Didn't the carbon fiber trend already come and go?Not interested in dark art boards unless they end up closer to pu prices.
say what?As to occy I reckon his body shape is more similar to most average punters than 140-170lb tour guys.
The Julian stab in the dark is basically him doing nothing but airs. My least favorite stab in the dark. That's probably why it's the shortest one length wise.I agree.....you could tell that Mick, Dane, and Jordy really pay attention to minute details of surfboards. Can't remember the Julian episode. But those are the types of people you want for this thing. Kelly would be the same way. I get the impression that Bobby and Mason wouldn't be as eloquent when explaining board design Maybe I'm wrong.
A (good) shaper would offer even more valuable and detailed info. As much as I'd like to see Burch or Tomo do one of these, I don't see any upside for the shaper. Obviously they couldn't ride (or choose) their own board so they'd be promoting someone else's board.
what's her name and does she drink?Long torso, huge ass, and incredibly thick short stumpy legs.
Can you break down the sort of qualities in such a board?Occy grew up with boards that had some "Resistance"
For him to surf his best he requires this - so do all non pro surfing customers
I don't.Best surfers in the world are not what you should make choices off of .
