Calling all enthusiasts, Greg Liddle in the haus! Check this rare 6'3" hull-shredder with resin wrap!?! Believe it Kenny G! We only have one, like Rick Kane and sugar cane...($OLD to Michael R.!)

6'3" is becoming a magic number around these parts, here's a Fineline MP for all your total involvement surfing needs. Creep up over the belly for hull-hum sweetness or step back and burn a cutty like only MP could...

During a visit to the Swift HQ in downtown San Diego we somehow convinced Richard Kenvin to come back to NY with us. Here he is in front of the shop sporting a Fish Fry tee (he and Bird Huffman started the damn thing!) with a 5'1" Simmons-inspired displacement hull shaped by Joe Bauguess. Part of the Hydrodynamica test pilot series, not for sale but RK's flirting with the idea of leaving it as a demo.

With RK in town a shred sesh was in order. Who wouldn't want to surf with the guy who beat Occy, Curren and Rabbit at OB Pier in '83? We piled a bunch of boards into a cab and headed south to Clams' Grandma's place in Bensonhurst--home of the fresh muhtz! Here's Dutchie reflecting in the backseat...
