Hotkurl: Million dollar ride...

2013 Hotkurl 10-5 by Roy Stuart:

The original design was made on a remote beach during the 1st year of the new millenium. We were camping in the dunes and made the board using the weather washed gravel in sacks for weight, and a carpenter's chest full of handtools. The dream was  make  and experience the ride worthy of Kings - The Kings Ride.

To achieve this a board had to be like a musical instrument ,finely tuned and resonant. With a deep and mystical harmony with nature, by respecting the laws of physics. The creative pilgrimage spans nearly half a century.

The ultimate luxury of this board needs to be experienced to be appreciated. The smooth wood burnished by hand will pleasantly surprise the casual admirer, the carefully selected timber will capture the art lover hanging this surfboard in a beautiful space, but its meticulously designed shape will delight the surfer. Hotkurl will become the means of an ardent love affair with the ocean's playgrounds. (tweet this)
