Bob recently handshaped a very special one-of-a-kind board for a one-of-a-kind surfer, Steph Gilmore. The outcome, a Custom 5’8” x 19” x 2 3/8” Asym Son of Plastic, Fully Handshaped by Bob for Steph. Watch some special moments of these two icons in the bay together, in Episode 1 of Custom for Steph Gilmore.
Custom Surfboards are at the heart of what we do, and have been ever since Bob first picked up a planer over 60 years ago. Getting a Custom Surfboard is all about making your board unique to you, whichever way you see fit, so it brings you the most stoke possible every time you surf it (or see it!). We thought it would only be right to give you the options to choose how 'custom' you want to make it.
If you want to make it a bucket list ticking experience, why not make a day of it with the Custom Handshape Experience. Get in the shaping bay (via FaceTime or in person) as Bob or Ben McTavish shape your custom surfboard right in front of you, and get all the goodies to remember it by.
