Custom Surfboard Wraps

Prureglass Surfboards - Costa MesaEvery now and then we get an odd request… ok more often than not we get an odd request, but we try to rise to the occassion and do something unique.

Pureglass in Costa Mesa, CA is a surfboard manufacturing and supply company that basically puts the fiberglass / fins / finishing touches on all the borads from many very good surfboard shapers in the southern california area. They work with shapers such as Dano, JC, Rickland, Wallin and others…

The project called for a full wrap on 3 surfboards to be used as a display piece in a fraternity at a major college in Los Angeles (2 guesses on this one), namely Alpha Kai.

Because of the shape of the boards, the job is not a simple wrap, the fins were glassed directly to the boards causing even more grief.

With a mulit-piece collection and minimal seaming, we completed the job… exhausted and underpaid… but satisfactorily and the client was stoked! (Their words).

Here are some pics of the process:
