It's a skippa

We stumbled on this great little video from a few months back that our friend Michael made. Nice work! 

We just made a couple copies of our friend Chris's 10'6" Skip Frye Eagle. We don't usually do copies of Trademark models of other brands... but it's hard to get a proper copy of that particular model out on this rock I hear. We had to wait a bit for the custom blanks to come in, but the finished product was worth it. Check out those Redwood side stringers. With Redwood, sometimes it comes really light and looks like cedar after it's glassed. But other times it comes in a much richer, almost black color. Always a roll of the dice, and it came up a winner on this board!
