Paisley







Remember those bitchin’ old board from the 1960’s with the crazy paisley fabric decks, well I love'em! hear is one that I did for my friend Barry Hatchet. It’s a classic triple stringer pin tail nose rider, I am very proud of this board. I was allowed to display my respect and interest for classic craftsmanship with the triple stringer, fabric inlay and the classic glass job with a glass-on fin. Also I was stoked it was for my good friend and solid supporter Barry Hatchet. This board is a culmination of good stoke, good craftsmanship and good people! Barry and Tricia.
