I've got two orders in my shop for Dr M. ( I feel like "Q" from James Bond now... ohhh Dr. M your boards are ready for viewing.. watch that ejector truck! And that nose has a heat particle beam laser ....."

..anyway, he's getting another 48" Mauka
and
...drum roll........


the FIRST Mauiline HotRod Slalom to roll out of the shop!
We discussed the design today on my website and we're equaly stoked!

Doc is gonna be a slalom dude!

Of course, I'll post some pics here along da way!

Mahalo's Doc! :thumb:

Mahalo's Geez.

i promise that if anyone ever comes out to see me, you can look at the boards...just not ride them...

ok. i just got off the phone with my local skateshop guy (Spencer), and he did NOT order the seismics. muy bien. and he has one pair of randals left, and they're 150's. muy bien again. and he'll be getting some abec 11's in soon, ranging from 60mm to 70 mm. another muy bien. so this thing, according to geez, is really gonna be a hotrod, cause he uses 180's with 74mm wheels. this is all very

MUY BIEN

yes..,it appears to be coming along quite well. well, the skateshop should be getting ABEC 11 wheels in in a few days, so i'll have most of the hartdware. just need the bearings and bolts. gonna get some luckys for the hotrod. makes sense to me.

I always have a cold one when a board gets done. My way of sending it off, and after a hour long laminating session, a cold beer is refreshing!

Yep Sierra Nevada it is..

It looks like fun yes.. but it's still work, and I still have a "day-job".

..although I do love to build decks.

I've been threatening to write a "Board Building Guide" for some time now... I guess i should just start!! Looks like there is definate interest.

Don't worry, it won't cost more than a set of ABEC 3's...
