This day started of very early. Shawn dropped before by the sun in his new spaceship, and we were off at over 50 mpg. with three surfboards, camera gear and two grown ass men! First stop was a Pacler Point for a very small and weak sorta surf session. Shawn just wanted to catch a few before we had to go and pick up two different surfboards and do some shooting therein. After running around for what seemed hours, we made our way up to Ventura and stopped in at Paul Eigenhuis' shop; Ahoi! Surfboards. Paul was very nice to us, gave us the inner sanctum tour and I made some photos of him doing the final shaping on one of his custom orders. Paul does it all, shapes, makes his own fins, glasses the boards from start to finish. Very mello guy! After spending some time with Paul, we then went on another wild goose chase looking for some superb waves, which didn't work out the best. We looked at probably 5 or 6 spots, and ended going back to Pacler Point hoping for the quality and size of the day before! But it just wasn't happening! Shot a few photos and video clips, saw a bunch of old friends including Wayne Rich and Chad Jackson, all in all a very nice day. Great vibes at the Beach, and everyone was enjoying being there.
