looking for a longboard on CL, came across one that looks good but I cannot find any infos on the manufacturer, which is not a good sign, could you guys please help? I'm attaching a photo of the logo.
I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

No idea myself, but there are so many shapers around, guys who make 20 boards a year or whatever, people who did it for a year and stopped. It doesnt mean its a bad board or anything; in terms of the condition of the board it could be good or bad regardless of whether the shaper is well known or not (just like a BMW can be in terrible shape). In terms of whether its a good board suited for your needs, then that depends on your needs

Short answer - dont worry too much about who made it, look at the condition of the board, the outline, the tail, the rails, rocker, length, width, thickness etc. If you are just learning to surf, then the last three are the most important

92626 is the zip code for Costa Mesa California. That's all I can tell about it. Anyone from Costa Mesa?
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.
