Shapers
Surfboards are beautiful hydrophilic (water loving) sculptures that their owners can take off the wall and use in daily life
An odd specialty in the arts
But an art it is
Here are some examples,
Steve Pedoflex rubber ducky (found this at Josh Hall's website)
Mr. Hall is a fine shaper in his own right BTW.

What fun! To say a board is "fun" is some how frowned upon. Which I believe is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. If all I did was standup I would be ordering one of these for a black ball beater for the summer!!
Jamie Murray boards are great! If you haven't seen his shapes before, check out this soon-to-be Bonzer.
Yet another shaper I would be ordering from even if I had to travel NOTB.
Spend some time at his Head High and Glassy blog. Well worth the time to get some perspective on real surfers riding real boards in real waves.
Greg Liddle has been polishing his hull shapes so long it seems like forever.
After all this time they are perfect.
I check out Kirk Putnam's KP's Round up regularly to see what's the latest and for interesting bits of Americana.

is the "Burrito Deluxe with Hullapinos". Now tell me you don't want to grab this, wax it up and take it out for a few quick waves.
