New Board

Just got this 9'-0" RB-type squash in from Diamond Glassing yesterday and it was quickly picked up today by Adam from Santa Cruz.

To Protect and Surf

Ray contacted me while on leave from the war-zone in Afghanistan.. He's an incredible man who shall we say, has seen it all as a USN nurse. I hope that I'm not trespassing on any military secrets .. Not my intention! His plan was to order the new stick, go back over there, then return home in October briefly to see the family and surf. Thankfully we realized his dreams.

I need to emphasize that the boys at Diamond Glassing made us at Murphy look GREAT! Ray wanted an e-mail picture of his personalized artwork, but as time did not permit,that could not happen. Jeffrey Meyers blew our minds in the 11th hour. Take a peek for yourselves and I'm sure you'll agree we hit the mark.

Thanks Ray for the order and for the opportunity to serve one who has given so much to his country and the people of Afghanistan.

Oh yeah, the board measures 9'-3" by 22.75" by 2-7/8". dm

Murphy Wood Go

Found this shot of a board that was made earlier this year. Wood tail block, wood D-fin and fat wood stringer. Like this photo a lot...... This board was a beauty in person.

Gotta Love the 80's

Remember this one? Classic 80's.....

Send Us Some

Here's a shot of team rider J.P. Marengo at the spot Joel Tudor likes to refer to as South Torrey. Here's hoping that the alleged El Nino will bring us some of these nuggets.

The Sacred Craft Expo weekend was a blast and a detailed post will be following shortly.
