Two of them have glass over plywood. Not in ridable condition. The twin fin looks like something you get when you mate a Hawaiian paipo with a California bellyboard. Nice template. I've thought about doing it on a modified wood skimboard. Make a little three footer without the fins....or less severe fins.
The green board is a finless mini from La Jolla, an area known for post war surf Nazi antics that started in the late forties. It has two holes in it. Maybe it was nailed to a garage wall or post at some point in time. The lettering is upside down, and the R.F. probably abbreviates "Rat Fink." So maybe sixties decor on a board that has an older looking template. Was it ever ridden in the shorebreak at Marine Street? The truth is lost in the sands of History. |

I laugh whenever I see that "Germany." That's too funny. What a great artifact. |
