Our friend and test pilot Erik Baldwin from Leucadia worked closely with Dennis on the shaping and fine tuning of his "moon plug". It's a light, short quad built for So Cal waves and high performance turns. Erik colored and glassed the board himself and it turned out pretty damn cool. Here's the 411 in his own words:
"Well, she's finally done! ...and her maiden voyage this evening was spectacular! I can't explain how cool this board feels under my feet! its quite a responsive yet very retro-ish' in how it glides through flat sections. As for the performance, it seemed as if the better the wave, the more it opened up. Foot positioning was also very comfortable, as the sweet spot seemed to be pretty big! It was hard to do something wrong! Oh yeah, it flys really well! Punts are a natural reaction for this plug! Yew!"
