Grain Time Capsule





The Grain has been returned to me for a little project I'm working on. I've decided to make a time capsule on the inside of the board. I want to have all my friends and family sign or do art in it before it is sealed up for the final shape. Since the board has been a long time in the making, I felt it would be great to know that on every wave I have the people that mean the most to me with me on every ride.

Above is a picture of Chris Miller adding some Fijian money to it as he had just gotten off the the plane from a three week surf trip. He was one of the first to add his mark. So far though, my favorite, was my niece Grace. I had all my nieces and nephews sign and Grace, who is adopted from China, wrote her name on the board for the first time... ever. Her mom was there and was crying she was so happy. Now that's the kind of vibe that I'm hoping for on this board. With that kind of good energy, I'm sure to get some magical waves.

Throughout the project I'm going to document what everyone adds to it and do a final post.
