Published 24 days ago

~~~NEW EPISODES WEEKLY~~~ It all starts with a 60's Yater Spoon. In Episode 09, we spend time with Oahu-based surfboard shaper Travis Reynolds as he breaks down three of his favorite boards of all time. With over 25 years of shaping experience, Travis dives into the subtle nuances of surfboard design, from bottom contours and blank selection to the happy accidents that turn into trusted designs. The episode opens with a vintage 1960s Yater Spoon, arguably one of the most successful longboard shapes ever made, and builds into a thoughtful discussion on history, experimentation, and progression. This episode offers a rare, detailed look at surfboard design for anyone curious about how boards evolve, why certain ideas last, and how a seasoned shaper continues to learn and refine his craft.
