EPOXY/EPS THE SMART DECISION?

THE ALTERNATIVE SURF CULTURE


Meet Your Shaper: Fletcher Chouinard from Mollusk Surf Shop on Vimeo.

This is a topic that nobody can answer, pro and cons vary depending your state of mind. My opinion, more durable, longer lively feeling , very light and more cost effective. PU less durable, superb flex, dampening feeling, better weight in offshore winds and bigger waves, early dead feeling, soul tradition. Very personal decision, in sliding feeling is all. In PU or EPS enjoy the ride!

THE MAGIC OF HULLS BY MARC ANDREINI

THE ALTERNATIVE SURF CULTURE




Marc Andreini is one of those shapers that sets appart. His magic comes with Hulls wave sliding machines. This creations based in Simmon's personal theories shows hydrodynamics as a reality. Effortless rides with maximal wave energy in use. CNC machine is unable to reproduce this lines and width distribution, to produce a unique feeling. Only some have the capability of creating this slide. Enjoy the ride!
