    Awesome. The ultimate hand made wave tool.

    My four kids got me a Grain kit for my 70th birthday – The Steamer, an 8-foot long board. My oldest has a cabinet making shop, and I think he was the ringleader. We’ve been working on it off & on for about 18 months, with him doing most of it, which is only fair :o. Very interesting project. I’m looking forward to the first ride.

    Awesome! The sustainability of these boards is the answer to a problem I’ve had with poly boards for my 50+ years of surfing. Where can get info on their prices?

    1960, USMC, Hawaii, Oahu, Haleiwa Beach, 8″ fiberglass board … even with foam, it weighed a ton. Delighted to see the ingenuity and craftsmanship going into these beautiful boards – thanks OCH.
