Beach Cities Surf Film Fest

Just wanted to notify all you loyal legions of the stoke, that the fourth annual Beach Cities Surf Film Fest is coming up on August 21st @ 7pm. I know it’s only May but it gives you wanna-be Thomas Campbells a chance to show your stoke through a lens. So get off  your asses and make some movies!!!!! Preferably of people riding Davenport battlewagons and Tyler Craftsmans . Go Go Go!.  Also, it is in support of one of the best and well respected surfers in the South Bay, Barry Hatchett. He is the embodyment of stoke… happy to surf in 2 foot slop or charge in 10 foot Cove rollers. If you can’t make a film, then just show up, any one who owns a Tyler or Davenport needs to attend or they’re a phoney!

Hermosa Beach Surf Film Fest 4065
















This is the 4065 that I donated to the Hermosa Beach Surf Film Festival put on by surfer/master of ceremonies Barry Hatchet. The 4065 is the culmination of everything that I have learned from my apprenticeship at Aquatech Glassing. Scott Anderson and Brian Hilbers are the ones that helped me with the design and building phases of the model. Team Member Mike Collins has done all the research work in the water and all refinements are thanks in large part to his personal research. This board is a tribute to my friends and mentors, anyone who rides one can attest to the good soul that has gone into this shape.
