Aaron Cervantes found some waves on his 5’6 Quadkumber this week, in Newport. Aaron also managed to split a peak with a Sandpiper, checking over his shoulder to make sure the Sandpiper went left.  Photos: Thomas Green

Simon Patchett, getting after it; on his 5’6 Quadkumber model.  Grab rail cutback in Sumatra. Generally speaking, Patchy has pushed the Quadkumber further and harder than I really expected.

That’s Super (8-footage) // Chad Cress

Chad Cress bought a super 8 camera off eBay, partially because everyone is fascinated with true film, partially because the camera itself looks cool.  He and Aaron Cervantes went and shot at a secret spot, known to locals as the Huntington Beach Pier.  Aaron was having his first go on his 5’6 Quadkumber, and Chad was having his first go with his super 8 camera… but you’d never know it.  Good work, lads.

5’6 Quadkumber with glass-on plywood fins, by Gully. The glass on quads are the most labor-intensive surfboard for the sander. Lots of nooks and crannies to reach with the sanding pad… but they look awfully nice when they’re done. Photo: Oden

We just did a board each for Todd B. and his son Cade. Todd had us do him an extra-pinny Almond Joy for East Coast cutbacks and hurrican high-lines. Cade got a 5’2 Quadkumber with hotcoat panels.

Hope these boards brings you guys years of memories together.
