The sun on the West Coast is finally showing and the East Coast got waves after a long flat spell. Hopefully that means summer is finally here. With all the board options out there we are here to help in the confusion. We now have 10 small wave board models in our lineup with 2 of which are new for 2010. That pretty much leaves something for just about anyone that wants to attack the many faces of summer with a high performance mind set.
Cheyne Magnusson came by today and picked up 3 fresh boards for his latest adventure. This time he is headed to Fiji for the “The Drop Zone”. Last time he filmed for The Drop Zone it took him to Tahiti. They are keeping the South Pacific theme for part two of the series and it will show on Fuel TV. The Drop Zone series highlights several pro surfers surfing and diving. The surfers joining Cheyne this time are Holly Beck, Alex Gray, and Bede Durbidge. To make us hate our life even more, Cheyne just informed us that he is flying first class 20 hours to Fiji courtesy of Body Glove and Air Pacific.
Cheyne picked up the following:
5′6 x 19 1/2 x 2 1/2 Beaker Model
5′11 x 19 x 2 3/8 Cheyne Mags Pro Model
6′1 x 18 3/4 x 2 3/8 Cheyne Mags Pro Model Step Up
He also is packing a 5′9 FlashPoint, 6′4 Supermodel, and another 5′11 Cheyne Mags Pro Model.

When they receive surfboards for their Oceanside location they immediately post them online for the customer that doesn’t have the chance to make it to the store.

This footage is from a few weeks ago when a lot of the traveling pros were in town for the Nike 6.0 event at Lower Trestles. Adam Robertson “Mobo” and Nic Muscroft “Rush.com”, from Moborush, stopped by our San Diego factory to pick up some custom Flash Point model surfboards. It’s pretty cool that the guys from In Surf News took the time to document these guys testing out some of their fresh custom surfboards before the big event. They both were riding Flash Point models hand shaped by Jason Bennett. From the looks of it, the Flash Points seemed to help them power through the flatter parts of the Lowers lineup.
Every once in a while we are the only surfboard label going through the glass factory so we are able to get boards in and out pretty quickly. That time is now and we have been able to get custom shapes without color to our customers on the West Coast in 2 weeks. If color is involved, 3 weeks. This opportunity comes at a great time as summer is almost here and that kind of turn around during the summer is almost impossible. Give us or one of our dealers a call and put in a custom order today.

Jason Bennett working to improve his surfboard shapes through extensive testing of the Alchemist Remix. This is footage from the last few weeks at Oceanside Pier. It has been convenient that the Pier has had a nice little sandbar for a few weeks and the weather has been prime. Jason tests his custom shaped 5′10 x 19 1/4 x 2 3/8 Remix model.
All footage and editing by Russell Spencer.
Beats by Jason Bennett.
Recent footage of Blake Jones at home putting his custom shaped 5′2 x 18 1/2 x 2 1/8 Flash Point model to the test. The Flash Point model has been Blake’s surfboard of choice at home and on the road when the waves are less than average.
