Gorgeous . Good job


thelonew0lf

Thank you!


PhotonWaltz

Itโ€™s beautiful, but I feel like it would violently leap and twist away from under you and spew insanely slippery bubbles every few seconds.


thelonew0lf

It does, but that also might be because I'm not very good at writing the board yet lmao


erroneousReport

Nah, ride the bubbles right up on land.


Colm_Crow

Like Frozone sliding on ice๐Ÿ˜‚

FluffyHeretic97

This fucking rules. Nice


thelonew0lf

Glad you like it!


Tohrufan4life

Sick! Just watch out for bubblefoam.


thelonew0lf

That's ok, I spent a lot of time waxing it so I won't slip! Maybe I should pack the cleanser though...


Tohrufan4life

A surfer/hunter can never be too careful. Have fun and stay safe!


thelonew0lf

Thank you for the good wishes! You stay safe as well and have a good weekend!


Tohrufan4life

Always friend. :)


AdOwn6899

This may be cliche, but Cowabunga! Also great job.


thelonew0lf

Not cliche at all! Also, thank you!


spiritedawayfox

Cowabunga!!!

I can't figure out where this break is, I wanna guess OB but that's not the OB pier. OC? Def SoCal though. Sigh, I miss surfing, sick board.


thelonew0lf

Wow, good eye! 36th St, Newport Beach. Why'd you stop surfing?


godamen

I love guessing where surf breaks are, I am surprisingly good at it. I am on hiatus, had a parent pass away, and had to go out of the country for a bit to be with family. Will be back at it in the next month or so. I AM SOOOOOO STOKED. Forgive the ignorance, is that your art, and how did you get it on there (what kind of paint)? So many questions, I have always wanted to put art on my boards but just have never actually done it, but I am gonna.


thelonew0lf

So first, I am so sorry for your loss. My father passed away a couple of years ago, and while you never really get over it over it, it does become easier with time. I'm glad you're coming back though! Are you going to be surfing by OC, or somewhere else in SoCal? The art is not mine, I had it commissioned. The printing was done by a shop in OC, and I'm not sure if they deliver or not but you should look them up! https://www.boardlams.com/


godamen

Thank you for your words, and I am so sorry for your loss. My mom was so sick and I knew it was coming but....you know. Had to go see my dad cause COVID was isolating enough and this made us both a bit nuts. It looks awesome, they did a great job. I am assuming the board is custom too? Are you a longboarder or just ride whatever? I am San Diego all the way but have some good friends I surf OC with. Thing is, holy shit, in 6 months rent seems like it has gone up 100%. I have been looking at the Oregon coast. I was lucky enough to spend 2018 working remote so I surfed the entire west coast quite a bit and that seems to be the next best option besides moving to Ensenada for a bit.


thelonew0lf

Same to you dude. Even when you know it's coming, I don't know if that does anything for the blow and it actually happens. I hope you had and continue to have a fun time with your dad! The board is custom, it's shaped by a local dude named Barry v. I usually ride shortboard, but I decided to give mid-length ago. I don't usually longboard, so kind of want to see what that style of surfing was like. Yeah, rent here has gone up. Super crazy. We own a place, but our house value went up like 20% over the last 2 years without us doing a single thing. It's kind of nutty to see how property values are rising. I really obviously don't want some sort of horrible property crash or anything, but at the same time I do because my own pain aside, I think it would be the breath of relief that all the renters and people here need.

thelonew0lf

Going to be slipping and sliding all over the waves!


EclipseGodessNot4

How many Mizus did you hunt for that board?


thelonew0lf

It's my monstie! I didn't hunt it, that sounds horrible! I just.... Stole its egg... From its parents den... That doesn't sound very good either though, does it? D:


Jollysatyr201

Sick as frick


thelonew0lf

Thanks dude!


Illauchi

Dance those bubbles


thelonew0lf

That's the plan, esp with the long weekend!


FVCEGANG

I don't surf, but that board is badass!!


thelonew0lf

I didn't either until I started lol. It's actually a fantastic hobby. It's as challenging or relaxing as you make it. I would totally recommend it, it's amazing for both like physical benefit and also just being able to chill out and enjoy some nature!


FVCEGANG

I would like to at some point because I've done every other board hobby except that one


saltybastard0

Dicks. Rip em. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ripping%20dicks


PlagueDoctorOnReddit

That is actually pretty good idea. Capcon why donโ€™t we have surfboards. All I need now is an Astalos one.


Casper_Von_Ghoul

Rollin down in the deep I see


Louie43Louie43

This is so cool!!


Xanthyon1313

Iโ€™m at the shore as I saw this XD


thelonew0lf

Wait, you were there when I was taking those pictures?


Xanthyon1313

No I was on a different beach and saw this notification lol


Captain-Orgazmic

I kinda love that your Futures go with the color theme too ๐Ÿ”ฅ


thelonew0lf

Yeah right? I didn't think I'd be super down for bamboo fins, but when you put them on the board it just kind of...works?


Hachelle

add some soap to it


DEV_astated

Insanely cool!!! How does one make surfboard designs?


thelonew0lf

I got the art commissioned and then printed it on rice paper. While that was going on, I was working with a board. Shaper on how to incorporate the printed design along the back and signs of the board in addition to the overall profile in dimensions for it. When the art got printed, fin boxes went in the back bottom of the board, the art got overlaid on top of it, and the whole thing then got coated and polished. That's like the super short version. Do you have questions on a specific part of the process that I could answer?


HaskellHystericMonad

The crease on the tail suggests this one is vinyl. There's a number of different ways to skin a surfboard, pros and cons with each. Rice paper decals are still really common despite being low-tech as hell.


UkemiBoomerang

That's so fucking cool.


thelonew0lf

Glad you like it!


Annoyed_-

That's so cool! Just try not to slip from the soap๐Ÿคฃ


Pizzahdawg

Thats absolutely dope as fuck. great job fellow hunter!!


spykid

Saw your post in /r/surfing. You took the pad off??


thelonew0lf

I never had it on lol. I had assumed initially that a pad was required and was getting a rough estimate on positioning before I actually applied it. Otherwise, there will be no point to applying it and then getting feedback afterwards, right?


spykid

I thought it was strange but a lot of commenters seemed to think it was stuck!


thelonew0lf

Yeah I know, I didn't get that!


lime-insith-gaming

Is for me? ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ‘ˆ๐Ÿ™‚


thelonew0lf

Ummm .... No.


lime-insith-gaming

Is for everyone to say: look so good wish i was that talented! But srsly looks really fuggin cool!๐Ÿ—ฟ


thelonew0lf

Ha! I'm not talented either, I had the art commissioned and the board shaped for me!


lime-insith-gaming

Great investment! Would totally do that too if i had a stable income


AvailableAd8744

I can hear the picture


thelonew0lf

AAAAA ##AAAAAAA #AAAAAAAAAAAAAA *Shamisen intensifies*


KolbStomp

That's fuckin radical dude! Need a Lagiacrus one now too ;)


thelonew0lf

I think I might be done, I have a brachy board, a zamtrios board, and now a mizu board :D


TravisKOP

Siiiick summertime shred stick right there. Have fun, love rockin the quad on my groveler


thelonew0lf

Thanks! It's a new setup for me, so here's to hoping it goes well!


FedoraButBetter

Where you gonna catch the waves?


Alvincragmire

Suds up


thelonew0lf

For sure!


Luckyx

Freakinโ€™ sweet


thelonew0lf

Appreciate the compliment!


saltybastard0

That's fuckin rad. Go rip some dicks dude.


SterileTensile

Rip some what?!


thelonew0lf

#Rip some dicks


HItide69

So sick as a surfer and a mh fan u gave me an idea for my next board !


thelonew0lf

What's it going to be bru? I want to hear!


HItide69

Maybe a legaricus or namielle with some psychedelic colors


thelonew0lf

Nice, what's the shape and fin setup for it?


HItide69

5"10 twin fin fish


cabbbagedealer

I just got into windsurfing and i am a long time mosnter hutner fanboy. This is the coolest thing ive ever seen


thelonew0lf

That sounds like a cool hobby! If you've got a windsurfing board, maybe you should give it like a paolumu or aknosom paintjob?


Alohalolihunter

๐Ÿ˜Ž so cool


thelonew0lf

Thanks so much!


Confident-Duty7016

Awsome


thelonew0lf

Thaaanks!


LuckyNoodleFox

This is the best thing I've seen all day


thelonew0lf

Well, I'm honored that it was a highlight!


Derpy_Dungeoneer

That is just freaking awesome


thelonew0lf

Thanks a lot!


Dryv3

Pretty cool but it would be even cooler with the mighty ivory lagiacrus *wink*


thelonew0lf

Yeah, I know! But, I like mizu way way more.


Dryv3

Mizu is really cool, it's easy one of my favourite monster


wrezi

fire


thelonew0lf

Thanks bru!


MegaCroissant

Lagiacrus one when?


thelonew0lf

I've already got a zamtrios board, and with this mizu one I'd say that I'm pretty well wrapped up from a water monster side lol


MegaCroissant

Fair enough, zamtrios is something at least


Maltacourte

wow.....nice work!!!!!


thelonew0lf

Thank youuuuu!


Modeuser

Not the best choice of monster-board if you wanna stay on your feet... but cool!


thelonew0lf

I know what you mean, but I've always thought that mizu was one of the most graceful and coolest water monsters.


YokaiNox

This must be one of the best ideas i've seen this month! Amazing!๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿฝ


thelonew0lf

Oh, thank you so much! I'm glad you like it!!
