On instagram Barry had this to say: "50” of Prone Zone Model. I’ve built quite a few bodyboard style boards, but they looked like something somebody else has built. (Tom Morey). Needed to do my own thing. So here it is. Incorporating design elements from other surfcraft I build. Vee, concaves, bevels, concave deck, etc. "

4’8” PZ Model. Been building some bodyboards, Paipos, & prone boards as of late. Mostly my versions of Morey’s or G&S boards. Needed to come up with my own board. Here it is. PZ (prone zone) model. Taken a few design cues from Kneeboards. Laying down on a board, lessens the riders ability to put board on rail. So, bottom contours are even more important! Jeff, this customer told me his belly would get a rash from Leash knot, so I recessed that area to eliminate this problem. Refinement is always job one. Got quite a buzz about this board. Looking forward to building more.
