9'8" handmade florida pig!

chris sent me this via surfapig@live.com: Hey Mike, I'm a RN here in Florida and amateur surfboard shaper. I've been stoked on your website and "Invasion" film so I thought for my next board I'd try my hand at shaping a pig and this is what I came up with. 9'8" long, a little more than 3" thick with a width of 22.5" set around 6" aft of center. I installed a fin box for ease of travel and storage in my apartment. Lemme know what you think. ~Chris


NICE!!
