I visited three glass factories to check on the progress.

P1020175 It was cloudy and windy in LOWERS this morning, so we're shooting a video today. P1020176 We are relieved that we have finally completed the necessary quantities of "SURF GRASS" to be delivered to retailers nationwide by the end of April. IMG_1087 It was crowded, so I decided to ride the 5'4" FISHQUEST II so I wouldn't lose out to the kids in the wave-catching battle. It's 30cm long, so it takes off 1-2 seconds faster. P1020183 Today, I went to check the progress of the production process of the order board from Japan. The first one is the "Catalyst" Glass Factory. Recently, it's becoming popular to position the LOST and MAYHEM marks in a way that's not standard. P1020196 This is where the resin is extracted from the drum containing it. P1020208 We specified every detail of the custom order received from a Japanese customer at Mayhem. P1020243 The second stop was a visit to the Barsham Glass Factory with Mayhem. P1020260 "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" was being sanded. P1020264 Glass lamination and sanding have been completed, and we are now waiting for the process of applying Nanotune. P1020271 We also visited the third place, the Ghetto House Glass Factory. P1020274 Here too, many boards to be sent to Japan are undergoing the lamination process. P1020276 Mayhem also told the factory staff to finish it quickly. P1020278 This is "LAYZ POTATO" with a glass deck surface. This is the next step in the process of glassing the bottom surface. IMG_1124 Just before sunset, I met up with Chucky. IMG_1117 Sunset Beach is a beach break located just north of Huntington. IMG_1131 The waves are big enough, but because it's high tide the quality is thick. IMG_1133 Chucky has great take-off ability and is a fast paddler, so even when he started paddling and looked like he couldn't ride a wave, he always caught one and caught a lot of waves in a short amount of time. IMG_1159 Today I took photos until it got dark. You can see the lights of Long Beach offshore to the right. So stay tuned for tomorrow's report! *
