a shorter longboard

Lately I’ve been inspired by Chris Wach and his canvas surfboards. I haven’t met him yet but he seems like cool kid from what I’ve read about him. I like the longboard style boards of all sizes that he’s been playing on. This past weekend I traded in my 6’10” Wayne Lynch gunny shortboard for a custom 6’10” longboard. I can only call it a longboard by the thickness and shape (17” nose 14” squash tail about 21.5” wide, tri-fin). I guess you could call it a shorter longboard. It should be done around 3-14-12 (ordered on 3-3-12). I’m looking forward to giving it a test drive real soon. Plus it’ll give me more surface area to draw on….

I think my new board will look something like this:
