This is an amazing board! The bottom features a sunset over the ocean motive, with redwood and pine sun beams, redwood sapwood and heartwood as the last light over the reflecting ocean. Ok, I might be going a bit far out there with that, but really, it is a stunning board. The redwood used was all salvaged from a pile of off-cuts from a house build in nearby Bonny Doon, and it turned out beautifully. The pine gives it a wonderful accent in color, both having rich luster and depth. The redwood single fin is from a piece of redwood burl found nearby, and is stunning, with bands of black and “birds’ eye” patterning throughout. The sun is the center of a big redwood branch that was in a fire pit on the beach, but when looked at closely has amazing grain circles and colours. The tail block is from the same branch. The top deck is completely different, with redwood and pine bands along a redwood and poplar stringer. The leash cup was turned by hand on the lathe, and both it and the vent are scrap bubinga. The rails are cork, with inlays of redwood circles along the sides, and glistening green pieces of abalone in the nose and in the tail block. Truly an amazing board.
