The Vans Simmons update

This year for the Fish Fry I was asked by The Vans Surf Team manager John Parmeter to shape some simmons for the boys to experiment with and see how they felt surfing something different from their normal comp boards. Team rider Caleb Reid-Boquist was very keen to be part of this challenge and spent hours colouring his board and personalising it.

This is what he had to say after heading home with the board and surfing it at his local break and getting the feel of it. " The board has been going really good and my whole outlook on surfing has changed,  it makes surfing big fat waves that you can't usually turn on a normal board , fun"

hope all is well
Caleb

Judging by the pics below he is getting to grips with it and having fun.
