8'5 mini-log for me

i made this mini late summer and it's seen plenty of water time. this is the evolution of the little big man/funky beast i made a few years ago. that one took some getting used to but i had a lot of fun on it and it taught me a few things! this one's a bit thinner, wider, more pinch in the rails and alot more sensitive. surfed it alot in less than perfect conditions and a few bigger days. later drops and rippin' cutbacks for a bigger board and it held on the nose to boot. long deep concave, stepdeck nose, volan bottom and knee patch. polished fabric inlays and hand rubbed on the rest. 9" rusty single.
8'5  17 7/8 x 23 1/2 x 15 3/4+  

7'2 bonzer

flat deck, flat finish, volan bottom and tail patch, plenty of volume and a bit pulled in the nose and tail. begging for a good ranch day.
