Left to right... The first board is a replica of the board his dad made him for his 1st birthday. He would carry it around with him everywhere. I think one day he lost it in the water at Beacons. This one was a board his grandparents made for him on a trip back east. The second board is one his dad bought for $30 on Neptune from a dad who made it for his son. When Hugo got this board he slept with it for at least a week straight.
Here he is feeling the rails.
Hugo showing me his style.
A standard thruster fin was used for the single fin.
Cool line art drawings were glassed in.
I like the acid wash paint job. Very cool. Grandma has some skills.
My neighbor Hugo is 3 and is one of the most surfed stoked kids I know. He hasn't actually learned to surf yet but he does have a quiver and a lot of imagination. At 1 he was carrying around this wood plank his dad cut out for him and would take it to Beacons and play with it in the white water. Now that he has this mini board, this is the summer for him to paddle out.
