A Surfing Celebration

To Celebrate the refurbishment of our wonderfull 63 year old Cornish Electro Steam Body Board Press Heritage we produced these amazing “St Perran/Flag” series boards.

Unique design, blending the Union and Cornish St Perran flags and each board complemented with its unique tear off detail.

Strong yet Lightweight, Sustainably sourced 9mm 7Ply Okoume Plywood offers us the opportunity to marry the very best1960’s Surf Bodyboard Press with todays racing yacht spec. materials to produce incerdibly strong yet lightweight bodyboards.

High Gloss UV Stablised, finished in full colour resins that will look great for years.

Steam Bent, using our orignal vintage Bellyboard Press enables us to create your totally original shaped Bodyboard that will give a lifetimes enjoyment.

Hand Made, other than cutting out the basic board we take pride in finishing your board by hand.

classic Vee Dub and Smart Board

 So during the launch of our first “Flag Series” boards Heritage Flag Boards a celebration we were asked if we would produce a vintage looking VW themed Herbie “53” board as a birthday gift?

It was our first VW themed project and the board, now graces the owners Man Cave most of the year and the rest touring beaches in the UK and europe. 

Sue's retirement Board

Number 73 London Bus, 

We met Sue a recent retiree on holiday on Polly Joke beach, Cornwall.

She wanted to re engage with her body boarding childhood and seeing our Herbie 53 board, asked “could we produce a bespoke similar style board but re-badged 73?”

For many years her daily commute had been courtesy of London Transports no.73 Red Bus 

Well in future Sue would still literally be “Boarding” the no.73 but in an altogether more memorable way. Shop

The Wedding Gift 

This pair of mirror imaged Boards were made as a special wedding gift for a couple whose romance was triggered by a VW Camper restoration.

Finished with vinyl rather than hand painted, these Lightweight, Fast & strong boards honeymooned with the happy couple, touring Scotland with lots of wild shoreline boarding and camping.

The Ultimate Karmann Ghia Accessory 

A Vintage VW deserves a truly Period, relevant, super smart accessory that is as  iconic as the vehicle.

so when we were contacted from an owner for “a Karmann period board” with mirror logo this is the result.

The nose has  subtle translucent pierced VW image, whilst the Chrome Karmann artwork (Image Below) makes a splendid tail logo.

your wishes.... made reality
