Swell Stealth

Swell Stealth

A one off, made in celebration of the fact that Swell have been making boards for 25 years! This is custom made to my spec!! 8 ft, old shape, narrower at the tail and less volume on the nose. We're looking at a three fin set up - it should be absolutely awesome. And the black is a new type of material. Looks wicked. Can't wait to give her a go!


A big up to Polly who led the shop for a record day on Monday! Came as quite a surprise as it's normally busier at the end of the week. Pleased to report that August is officially busier than last year, so far!

This morning I went and helped Kevin on the 8am lesson. He's really come on. Last year we knew he was good but he just lacked a bit of consistency. This year, with a bit more experience under his belt, he's proved he's got real strength and gets a lot of positive feedback. Nice relaxed manner, the clients have really warmed to him. Alex too, he's been good from the start, and had some great feedback today. Always nice to hear at this time of year when the seasonal staff can see the end is in sight.

Staff party organised for the Tuesday, 1st September. We're anticipating that it will go quiet after that as schools go back early. We've having a BBQ on the Beach House decking, Cowboy fancy dress theme and we've hired a rodeo bull machine for the night! Should be fun!
