Had a good customer ( ) contact me about a first custom for his girlfriend , we chatted about her progression and the 6'6" featured was the formula we came up with. chelsea_johnson90 had her input also and wanted some colour also

So ive been making this model for about two years now and ive never really given it a formal name, I call it the Mini Mid as that I exactly where its roots lay.

Send me your ideas for a defining model name based around its mid length origins and I will pick the best one to formalize this already popular shape.

So glad this one is off to the corro coast , ive spent so much time exploring the peninsula it feels like home .

Mikey has worked for me doing ding repairs and likes the whole locally made board idea and I appreciate the support πŸ™

These custom board reviews are so very important for building a better picture of how my boards are going for the individuals who order them and how my models are geling with the intended customer.

Colbert sent through this absolutely epic review on his recently purchased The Muzz model . Travis went epoxy as his intentions were for a performance groveller for his Muriwhai local , its hard to see the model defining hip in the tail on his but it is very much there.

The white board in the photos is the orginal hand shaped by myself and Mario.

The Muzz model came about via a shaping class with M. D , I knew as soon as we were into putting this board together it was gonna be a winner.

WORDS By

I was after a small wave groveller that still maintained a solid performance edge for my first epoxy surfboard.

Johnny really took the time to listen to what I needed. He looked at my current surfing situationβ€”factoring in my ambition, weight, and fitness levelβ€”and recommended custom board dimensions specifically tailored to me.

The board itself is amazing. The volume is spot on, it’s fast and super responsive underfoot, and it turns sloppy waves into an absolute blast to surf. It turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. I am beyond happy that I now have a decent option when the waves fall short !

I’d highly recommend anyone looking for a new board to move away from funding foreign shaping companies and support our talented local shapers instead. Pop in and have a chat to Johnny, and support local :) πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜πŸ‘ŒπŸ™πŸ’₯

I ordered two custom boards from Johnny, I wanted a quiver to take on a trip with me. We got straight to business and I really enjoyed the process of talking to him about my requirements and also just sort of getting to know each other a bit.

I ended up choosing a tripper model as a step up and a Clam quad. The boards came out so bloody beautiful and with custom paint jobs it just feels that much cooler to know that no one else has a board the same. The tripper is superb. It is a serious board. It is dependable And predictable in the best possible way. I’ve taken it out and some bigger waves and the thing performs as advertised. The glassing job has held up to my use.

The Clam is handsdown the best surfboard I’ve ever ridden. There’s just something magic about it. It took me awhile to dial in the quad, but Once I did, it just felt like the Coolest super responsive high speed board and it puts a grin on my face every time.

Johnny knows his business. I would buy from him Again, without thinking.

Another Tripper model out rhe door recently for 6'6" proper step up for indo. A guy came into the shop.the other day and asked whats the advantages of a custom over a stock board

The first major one is strength, we glass customs to last longer then pop out boards, my glassing system and process allows me ro use heavier cloth without affecting overall board weight

The second one is attention to detail !! We tune a board to your surfing skill , paddlabilaty needs and weight. tuning a board simplified means leaving foam in certain areas and taking foam (foiling out ) from other areas to achieve a maximum connected feel.

DANIELLE DEBAUGH just picked up her new 5'11" Mini Mid and she seemed very happy with the new board.

Ordering a custom surfboard off a local shaper should always be a positive experience for both parties .

So stoked on this build, πŸ™Œ 5'11" x 201/4" x 21/2" 33.12L

Troy de Baugh we grew up surfing our local The Port back in the mid to late nineties, what a buzz making a custom for the next gen .

I used to make boards for a crew of south aucks surfers , Troy's brother Adam DeBaugh got s few board off me to back then too

Dani and I talked out her requirements coming off a long board and a mid length, she was riding dad's Jdub Surfboards nz. dirty hipster model for a bit too. This mini mid length has now got a solid place in my range its great for transitioning from bigger boards to a shortboard feel while retaining paddlabilaty and stability.
