My friend Ed Lewis started making custom handplanes about a year ago. He and his friend Kipp founded *enjoy handplanes in N. County San Diego and they make these handplanes out of recycled foam from old, lifeless and broken surfboards. These old broken down surfboards find new life in the form of a body surfing device – and also avoid the landfill. The quality of these planes is immediately evident in the custom resin tints, design colors and solid glass work. These ‘lil handplanes have really found a unique niche in the surfing market – so much so, that the folks at Sacred Craft have taken notice. An *enjoy handplanes window sized poster adourns the street window frontage of the Rittenhouse Building in downtown Santa Cruz, the current site of the Spring 2011 Sacred Craft expo. Way to go Ed! Check out all their insane work at the *enjoy hand planes website.

Stoke Spreading

"All good things are wild and free."- Henry David Thoreau
This quote from a calendar in my kitchen reminds me of JP from Gold Fish Point. He is all about spreading the stoke. This 7'4" he hooked me up with is most definitely an extension of that. And check the killer custom paint job on the bottom.. A rockin' rocker fo sho. Thanks JP.
