still making some tweeks to the final design, but Jeff & Jordan are close to finalizing her pro model. this board showed up white as kane's Irish behind around 6:30 pm and Jordan worked on it through the night.

came out of the box looking like this:

Very cool, do you have to send it back for final coat now?

no, the "after" pic was just where she had finished up with her paint pens. I spray a clear top coat on after that to protect it.

I wish I had one ounce of artistic talent. Looks great!
What do you use for the clear coat?

Love it, what did she do with her old board she had drawn on?

It's a Krylon clear acrylic spray on product. I can only find it at Ace Hardware. It leaves the board nice & shiny, not as dull as it is in the pic above.

It's still in the bag. We're going to have a number of boards for her this year and she will ride a different one depending on wave, conditions, tricks in her run, etc.

This board has more volume, length and rocker than the prior one.

That's a BA message board you have. Oh and the surfboard is sweet also.

Jeff makes top notch surfcraft.

Looks awesome! Drew, can you post a pic after the spray. I'd like to see how it looks afterwards.

Looks great. Have to get my behind done like that down at Slick Rick's Transmissions and Tattoos.

Just have a few brews with Drew, I'm sure he can borrow the paint pens and get after it!

Unless it is the photo the colors almost look a little deeper.
