Ancient boards and average surf…
September 1st, 2010
It’s not exactly pumping out there today. In fact the small swell is weaker than it has been over the last few days, probably due to yesterdays strong winds messing it up. A light onshore breeze was also putting some extra wobble in the face making it pretty hard to get a decent wave. Surely this run of tiny surf has to end soon.
Yesterday the saltmotion gallery and café hosted the official launch of the Tom Wegener designed, GSI produced alaia “Seaglass Project.” Tom has been instrumental in rediscovering designs of “Alaia” surfboards, ridden by the ancient Hawaiians. His countless hours in the shaping bay and the water have allowed him to replicate and reproduce these ancient craft, with modern shaping materials. The boards will be available in the next few months – I can’t wait to get my hands on one!
Fathers day this weekend – saltmotion has all the answers to ensure dad is impressed, wowed and happy, including vouchers.
Enjoy your day,
Joel Coleman…
