Haydenshapes the man who makes sleds for the likes of Craig Anderson and Creed McTaggart has teamed up with our good buddies from NZ fashion label Stolen Girlfriends Club on a new surfboard collaboration. Heres what they have to say about it…
Pop colour silk fabrics from past and present SGC collections are the print foundations that lay across an EPS foam base beneath an epoxy laminate, creating a line of surfboards that stand out in racks amongst the surrounds of their traditionally bone coloured or spray printed counterparts. Truth be told, you wont actually find these amongst the racks in store. Hand made by custom order, each limited edition piece is unique to the buyer’s specifications. Although some may hang them on their wall as art, they are in fact high performance surfboards available in any desired model from the Haydenshapes 2012 range.
The smooth surface of each board is predominantly matte finish, with the exception of arbitrarily selected shapes within the fabric’s print, which are a gloss polished and infused with a coconut scent. Check out the design options at haydenshapes.com
