Custom Boards

Who can remember the thrill of picking up your new custom board. Every few days you could pop into the factory to watch it being built.You would always get that first shot of the board without wax.
Jackson Surfboards and the other local board builders have created plenty of stoke through the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s.
Not sure if the young guys of today feel the same as we did back then , when their imported boards arrive in a box from China!Photo words by Tim Vanderlaan.
