In the 16 years I spent shaping on Oahu’s North Shore I had the opportunity of working with some of the world’s top surfing abilities and many of the islands top talents as well.

The demanding conditions of the North Shore surf allowed for design feedback possibly unavailable from any other stretch of coastline on earth. This experience has helped me to consistently produce boards that work!

After relocating to Australia’s Tweed Coast I spent time working with some of the area’s top junior talents helping to raise their level of performance, while utilizing this feedback to adjust my designs for conditions typical of Australia’s east coast.

Some of the talents I’ve worked with include:
Jamie Sterling, Mark Healey, Arnold Dowling, Lee Freitas,
Matt Gorman, Davey Miller, Glenn Winton, Munga Barry,
Shawn Sutton, Tim Chalmers, “Chippa” Wilson, Steve Powell,
Chad Harvey, Jackson O’Brian, Ralph Pullinger
