Grafikboards
GrafikBoards is a new project by a group of very talented people from Portugal. Grafikboards is basically a printing service for the surfing industry, but not the common kind. They print in a very thin fabric anything you can dream of, from high quality photo to a simple single color or black and white graphic. Fabric is then glassed on board like a normal logo.
100% custom and easy to apply for perfect results.
Check out their website at: http://www.grafikboards.com
Here’s a great example. Daniel Costa, from Essential Surfboards (http://retromovement.blogspot.com/ ), uses one of his personal photos on the nose of a longboard. Can’t get more custom than this!

A little bit of California in Holland…
Stijn Mulder (right) and his brother are part of a growing community of Dutch surfers who appreciate the heritage and craft of surfboard-building that is deeply rooted in the history of the California surf culture. Here they are enjoying a few waves on a winter day in The Netherlands.

LEROY GRANNIS R.I.P.
LeRoy 'Granny' Grannis (August 12, 1917 – February 3, 2011) was veteran photographer. His portfolio of photography of surfing and related sea images from the 1960s enjoys a reputation that led The New York Times to dub him "the godfather of surfphotography."[1] He was born in Hermosa Beach, California.
Living a beachfront childhood, by the age of five Grannis was taken swimming and bodysurfing by his father. Soon Grannis made himself a bellyboard from a piece of wood and rode it during vacations in his mother's home state of Florida. In 1931, at age 14, his father gave him a 6' x 2' pine board from which he hacked a kneeboard using a drawknife[1]. At Hermosa Pier, stand up surfing was the rage, so he began borrowing boards until he could get his own. Later a member of the Palos Verdes Surf Club, second only in America to the Corona Del Mar Surf Board Club, which was established in the late 1920s [2], he struggled to balance surf time with family and work.
