Surfboard or Art?






I was up at Noosa the other day and called in on an old surfing mate from the 60's, Paul Kirk-Lauritsen who is now retired and living at Noosa. Unlike me, he has continued to surf since then and grabs a few waves most days of the week.
As an interest he decided to make himself a wooden board. This is becoming more and more popular these days. His handiwork is terrific and he's now on his sixth board. The first one took him 5 months to make and the latest 5 weeks!
Here are a few pics:

  2. As Mick Hooper is glassing them for Paul and has taken delivery of one of these for himself, I'm told his will appear with a "Sun" Hayden sticker!
