Nice work Tux!
PS - I think I mentioned to you that I know they guy who built your house. Long time family friend. Eddie, the concretor... He's pretty good on a dirt bike too! He moved over to Ocean Acres, for more room for the family.
It must be a great feeling making your own board then riding it.
Yes indeed
I still get a bit of blood flow. Love to make a Vader like that. Looks great.

It just has a 8 inch fin box in it bro...going to see how it goes with one of the 8 or 9 inch greenough style flex fins...the rails are pulled a long way down so hopefully it all works like it should
