My first original design...The Narwhal...

Two of my good friends are out here from Cali and we have been hanging out pretty much non-stop.  We all work in some shape or form of the surf industry, and since the waves were horrible we decided to go and shape a board.  Ricky Lesser (rickylesser.com) and I went over to the shaping room and got weird.  While in there I decided I was going to morph 3 different boards into one and make it a work of art:) here is the result....

Second off I am editing up some stuff for BAYVI.com and NOVUSSWELL.com and naturally I am really into what I'm doing so I forgot I had put a pizza in the oven...this was the outcome :/

The Re-launch of a legend...

I have recently decided to start shaping surfboards under my INTER-Act label again...The purpose and goal of these boards have always been to give back to a world that has given me inspiration.

1. All proceeds are donated to 2 causes
- Fahad & Shahadat

Fahad (pictured left) is a young surfer from Bangladesh, who although extremely smart is from a lower caste, Shudras (agriculturists, service providers, and some artisan groups). His brother Shahadat is an entrepreneur even though extremely young (16), two years ago he started selling shells on the beach to tourist. His business has grown so that he now has 2 other street kids working for him.

During my time there both of these brothers impacted me, Fahad with his youthful innocence, Shahadat with his care for people outside of his family. I promised myself that I would help both of these kids break through this "caste" system that holds them down. So with the money from these surfboards I will be sending them to school, getting them a personal tutor, and supporting their hobbies, Fahad loves surfing, Shahadat is an amazing soccer player.
