We all take a bit of Santa Cruz with us when we go elsewhere… Here’s my son out enjoying big surf (for Texas) on his custom board from #locussurfboards. Learning how to surf in Santa Cruz prepared him for waves on Oahu’s north shore, Puerto Rico’s Rincon, and many more to come. #livelifetoitsfullest #everyday #santacruzlifestyle Fantastic photos @dakotamelde
~Fall~ September 18th, 2017 5’6 Gibbon quad What an epic season that was! So many giant swells back to back for months! A few waves that season are still in my dreams frequently. . . . #locussurfboards #santacruz #california #handmade #handshaped #ecoboard #surfboards #surf #surfing #minisimmons #gibbon #fall #winteriscoming #getYourStepUpsOrdered
The Monkey Wing from @locus_surfboards sounds like (read below) an absolute dream especially if your faced with some classic summer slop! #onlytwins ・・・ ~MonkeyWing~ For gervisochoa The MonkeyWing is one of my oldest models. It represents an extreme take on the principles of Mini Simmons design. Parallel outline, massive planing surface area and low drag reducing rocker. Coupled with low aspect ration keels pushed way back. The goal here is to have a small board that can generate a ton of speed in really small / junky conditions. While the MonkeyWing does this extremely well, it also works great as a crowd equalizing paddle monster. ☠️ .

~Hand Shaped~ 📸: @daltonjohnsonmedia Pre outline shaping saves me time. I’m able to plane much faster as I’m not worried about my outline yet. I can rough in my bottom contours and foil the deck. Then drop my outline and I’m pretty much ready for rails. . . . #locussurfboards #handshaped #surfboard #ecoboard #surfboards #surfboardshaper #surf #surfing #surfphotography #surffactory #locusfactory #grindemout #santacruz #california #handmade

~Lamjam~ Pro tip: When ordering a custom board giving your laminator some creative freedom will often result in the best representation of their work. Ultimately making it more fun for the team to build. It could even lead to your board moving through a tad bit quicker because they are excited to work on your board. 😉 📸: @stephenjones_11 . . . #locussurfboards #santacruz #california #handmade #handshaped #surfboard #surfboards #lamjam #epoxy #epoxyart #epoxyartist #color #colorlamination #lamroom #tattoo #tattoos #surf #surfing #surfphotography #portraitphotography #keepsurfinginthehandsofsurfers
