I have friends in Waipahu and Ewa Beach that think your dog looks delicious especially after a stunt like that. Pupu pups or bow-wow laulau anybody?

Aloha,

I think he was just creating a rail with some bite.

With those angles of attack, the board might have been a dog anyway...

AJ,
Nice job on the shape. Sorry, but I can't stop laughing. We have 4 damn dogs and we love every one of them. Cute dog you have there. Got to love it. Reminds me of my Drover who is currently covered with bites and scratches on his face from fighting with our Malamute. He gave away about 60 pounds, but has the idiotic pit bull tenacity. Glad neither were seriously hurt. More training. Mike

OK, nothing too serious: just make a twelve wingers asymetrical tail. Post photos and tell us how it rides.

.....is that foam dust all over his face ????!!!

mate , he looks so pleased with himself !!

[till he becomes occyburger]

....now i see what you mean about it being beyond salvaging , aido !

*********but PLEASE don't throw it away yet, until i have seen it , eh mate ?

[i'd like to play around with it , see what i can come up with , if that's okay with you aido?]**************

mate , how wide and short WOULD it be if you reshaped it , just out of interest ??

[ i ask , because maybe sandgroper's 5 year old son Cale might be able to surf a really little fish .....]

thanks for posting those shots , brave move aido !

cheers

ben

so ....are you locking the next one in your bedroom , when it's shaped and ready to glass ?

get the dog another blank
he definately has talent!
that smug look...
we can market his designs to large manufacturers on
charisma alone!
this is obviously a reincarnated shaper
the dog tail will go dow in history
with the squash the fish and the bat!

every animal worshiping culture has had a pivotal moment
the fact that this is still a dog year is a real consideration.
the next four boards will be seminal
in the development of this unique talent
what a great dog
....ambrose...
not like them otre dawgs
humping random legs of
elderly women
with shopping bags
at the mall

sorry to laugh at your unfortunate incident but thats put such a smile on my face today....... Your dog looks like he knows he's done something bad but he just doesn't care.

I bet your dog is the kind that will take a dump on your neighbours lawn :)

I deffo think you should do something with the blank to always remind you of this funnt event. Re-size the plank and spray a pic of a big dog biscuit on it and just tease the dog :)

Take care

"culprit", that's such a great name for a dog ! (Occy is good too, though.) you should send this shot and the story to Occy , he'd probably be stoked his namesake is creating mischief , as well .

But really, IS that a muzzled grey face , or foamdust on him ??

#1: I agree with Ambrose- get him another blank, he's my new favourite shaper and I'd love to see what he could do with a quad.
#2: He is alright isn't he? That foam stuff is toxic I hear.
#3: Most entertaining thread for a while, and that's with some serious competition of late

that's just a dog-gone shame. Just slap some balsa on those chewed up rails, then it's bound to work better than any other board...

logo suggestion? "Savage Attack Surfboards"....

AJ, I'm afraid that no mere human will ever be able to understand your dogs "out of the box" ideas on board design. Our only hope is that you ask him where to put the fins, glass it, ride it, and report back ASAP. -Carl

Hi all,
thanks for the great postings! Occy is so happy that he has made such an impact both here and in the fickle world of board design. He doesn’t surf himself and prefers to remain behind the scenes. He is a cheeky little bugger thought. Last week I took him to the beach and he crapped on someone's nice clean white beach towel. I died of embarrasement.
His muzzle is naturally grey (he's seven yrs old) and doesnt seem to have been affected by the foam. he looks tough but is as soft as a marsh mellow and makes the worst guard dog.
So its back to the drawing board for me. New blank arriving soon and at least I have all the tools and some practice up my sleeve.
Keep ya all posted

I have a mate whose shaping shed is in a cow paddock, once he left the door open and the cows got in and ate some big chunks out of a board that he had just finished. At least yours got attacked by a carnivore!

I'm on a road shaped like a figure 8,
I'm going nowhere but I'm guaranteed to be late
