"Coil Technology (surfboard)"

Broken down to the basics, Coil technology is the vacuum-lamination of an EPS foam core to engineer better flex, better durability, and better ride into a  hand-shaped board.  Developed by Kirk and Eric Brasington, the Coil process first involves a light-weight stringerless EPS core, hand-shaped to stock or custom spec and engineered to sprinkle flex, tension, and torsion in all the right places.

"Montaj" DVD Review

Although it has been a number of years since the release of this movie, the surfing in it is as electric and cutting edge as it has ever been. I have to say that among all the videos that I have seen, this is my absolute favorite, hands-down. If it is possible to wear out a DVD from playing it, this disk will be the first one to become a beer-coaster. More.....

"First Chapter" DVD review

About a year ago while traveling for business I was stuck in a series of long airline delays. Luckily I had a bunch of surf DVDs with me, a laptop, and internet access, so I had something to help me make it through the 10 hours of delays I had to endure. One of these videos was “First Chapter”, featuring Dane Reynolds. Holy crap he can surf; up until the point I saw this movie, I had only seen him presented as an “up-and-coming” grom coming of age in some magazine pictures and short video clips online. Watching this film made me realize he was no longer an up-and-comer, but someone who had become ther here-and-now of progressive surfing. More....

50/50 Waveskate surfboard

These boards are shaped out of California by cross-over skateboarder/surfer/shaper/artist Ben Wei. They made some press a few years back, but I have not heard much of them since except the occasional sighting in punked-out surf vids featuring aerialist anti-establishment surfers.

5’7” x 20” x 2 3/8” Very flat deck brings a lot of foam out to the rails, so it feels much thicker than that last measurement suggests. Thick, “hockey puck” lookin’ roundtail. More....

6'2 Firewire Surfboard Review

A few months ago I purchased a 6’2” Firewire “Flexfire”.  These boards are a wholly different construction than your standard “poly” board (a polyurethane (PU) blank glassed with polyester (PE) resin) or hand-shaped “epoxy” board (an expanded polystyrene (EPS) or extruded polystyrene (XPS) blank with epoxy glassing).  Instead of being shaped from a single blank or block of foam with a stringer in the center, Firewires have a very light-weight EPS core with thick but light wood stringers that are laid up on the outside of the blank (perimiter stringers).
