How To Build A SURFBOARD

Here is a video of Myself and Anthony Sherman Making a Log for the small summer surf on the Hawaii's North Shore. This board is one of the first Circus Surfboards, the red Bonzer was probably the first, but no pictures makes it just a memory.The blank we used was kinnda messed up, as it was breathing the whole time. That was a weird peroid when all the blank companies were just throwing anything out there.

Anthony and I built this at Charlie Walker's ALL SURF GLASSING in the Wailua Sugar Mill. Charlie is the Man! That guy is by far the most generous person i have met here in Hawaii. A legendary waterman and board builder, Charlie Walker would never let you know. After working for him for over five years, I cant recall him ever talking about himself in a ego centric way. Thanks to Charlie Anthony and I had a place to build boards and support our surf bum lifestyle.
Thanks Charlie
