Ding Repair

Jackrabbit fin on Torq 9'1"

There's no dings on the Torq board; just love the Jackrabbit logo.

As I started thinking about surfing in summer 2023, I pulled out two old boards to check their conditions. They'd been stored under the deck since we moved from the Westside up to Felton. The shorter green board is 7'11" x 22" x3" and was shaped for me by my old friend Mark Goin in 1991. I'm betting I got this to do more surfing at Getchell's with my old boss at UCSC Tim Price.

In late 2023, I sent the green board into Brian Ebert at https://besanding.com to have the major dings fixed. Here are a before and after.

The red white and blue board is 9'6" x "22" x "2 1/2". It was built for me by Mark Goin in 1987. It was extensively damaged and my wife decided to get it fixed for me as a Xmas present in 2024. Here is the before look.
