European Wooden surfboard meet today at Moy Hill Community Garden near Lahinch ,Ireland

We wish the boys well for a great day in the Emerald Isle and look forward to some pics.

1950's wooden board

Bruce Russell just sent me these shots of a board he has as he wants to find out more about the board, with a view to selling it. So if you know anything about boards of this era and who may have built it you may like to let Bruce know. He is on the Sunshine Coast Qld.

Back to the woods in the Philipines again

Chris Gonzaga has just sent me this update on their latest board building get together and community gathering on Skull Island.

" Hi Grant, we have done it again! back to the woods in skull island went off well. This time was something different, we had the workshop, a medical mission and ambitiously we had a new house/work shed built on the island. This house will be a venue for building, testing and developing wooden surfboards. at the end of the build it became more clear to us that back to the woods is not just a workshop or a gathering of like minded individuals but more of like a personal reminder. A reminder for us to give back and live a simple life."

I love what these guys have done with little resources but lots of drive and passion as a group.
Check out the following images that more than tell their story. Love to join them one time.
