Spring Break Projects

Erica and I working on what is sure to be a really fun wave sliding tool in the near future...

Quick Fix

How to... turn your old winter wetsuit into a beautiful new spring suit! By Alex and Erica! We decided to take Erica's old O'neill suit and modify it into a long arm/short leg spring suit. We had to cut just above the knee, fold it over, and glue it with rubber cement. Truthfully, Erica did most of the work. I just stood there and held the blowdryer when she needed me to.
Items needed:
1 Rubber Cement ($5 from Home Depot)
1 Blow dryer
1 Old wetsuit
2-3 Safety pins to hold the folds in the legs in place
1 Beautiful girlfriend calling the shots
And... Bingo Bango Bongo. New spring suit: TPO style.

Quick Fix #3

My wetsuit is really starting to fall apart, for those of you that care. I had to make some additions to keep it going through till Spring. One was to put some string for the zipper, the other was to sew some rubber over the worn out kneepatch.

Board racks

Last week, Greg, Trevor, Mr. Jones, and I decided to work on a board rack for our boards in Trevors Garage. After three trips to Home Depot, alot of me watching everyone else do it, it finally got finished today by Trevor and Mr. Jones! Here are the results...

Christmastime fun

After lunch/dinner with the family, I decided to make more use out of my torn up wetsuit and made another fin cover for my brothers 9'2 Webber fin...

Quick Fix

So my zipper broke on my wetsuit the other day. While I was walking around my dorm in my wetsuit trying to figure out how to get it off, I thought, "Wait, a paper clip would probably work." Voila.

Fin covers

I thought about this concept a week ago after constantly dinging my fins in my room. So I tore apart my old Mutant and sewed two pieces together to make a fin cover. It takes about 30-40 min, depending if you have the material already. You just draw and outline of your fin, cut, and sew together! Super easy, and fun. Here is what you need and the end product on my 9'5 Gato flex fin. This is just the first one, so its a little messed up.
