Should have been here yesterday....

Last night we hosted an open house/seminar on Stand Up Paddle (SUP) board building! The event was well attended with guests coming from as far away as Eugene, Oregon (348 miles).

Paddleboard Building Demo This Thursday Night


You are invited to a Board Building Demonstration/Seminar at our facility this Thursday night (Feb 18th) from 6-8pm.

We will be discussing and demonstrating:


  • Fin Systems, installation and locating fins. We will show FCS, Futures, Probox, and Longboard box fin installation techniques.

  • Graphics and Logos

  • Non-Skid Options

  • Shaping

  • Glassing

At 7pm we will have a glassing demo where we do a multi-color lamination.


We will also have on hand our wood kit boards, including the Mahi-Mahi standup paddleboard, the 18' Stinger Laydown paddleboard, and Frame kits from Wood Surfboard Supply.


This is a great opportunity to come out and get your board building questions answered as well as seeing how it's done.


I have gotten a lot of requests from customers that won't be able to make it to video this and put it up on the website. We intend to do so.


Our address is 11824 Watertank Rd, Burlington WA 98233. We are located next to the Skagit Regional Airport. Phone 509.493.3464.


Hope to see you then.

WARNING- Surfing Humor, no offense intended to Non-Surfers :-)

We just got these in from a source that will remain anonymous for obvious reasons.....







We don't know who did these but we wouldn't be surprised if they lived in Seaside OR and had "Long Live the Thruster" tattooed across their chest.....

Enjoy
