yeah I wish...won't be in Cali, but he will ship domestic to Hawaii. I was in the states earlier this Year and should have had a day to check it out but we had a direct transfer to NYC from LAX. Next time for sure

Made in Hawaii would be a Balsa brewer.... But TbH, besides that didnt really see many Lbs I'd bother with. Some of the best LB shapers reside here anyway, especially in the Noserider type boards.

Saw some great looking shorter boards and mini guns though..

A Tyler would be sweet.. Good way to save on freight...

Yeah I know what u mean. I do think I have made my fair contribution to the Aussie shapers super find over the years too!..just had my eye on Tyler's boards for some time now.

It would be best if I was in LA but picking it up in the USA will save some of the import duties etc....just not sure on the airlines just yet for the length?!?!
ive been to Hawaii heaps of times but never with anything over 7,6.
if not I'll pull the trigger on a new Thomas "Keeper" and just hire a Mal in HI.

Yeah awesome boards...they are a true log style board though. I have ridden his Old Faithful model. Really set up for the Noosa Points and old school surfing.
Gotta have one in the quiver...he truly puts some love into the finished product and no two boards are alike

Going back many years now SA and I shared the love of a Model A or Z (I think) build quality was brilliant but I couldn't get the hang of the fin so far back







She was a fun board that one mate but the shortness of length and fin where not a good combo IMO either.

I have 2 x 11 foot Model A's now and they are superb. Also a 10'4 Corky and all have the fins set back and are just perfect.
