Thanksgiving on your path through life 2008

Thanksgiving day 2008 what are you thankful for in your life? In this high paced world we live in it is very important to slow down and take some deep breaths and let go of all the negative conditioned thoughts we all have in our minds. I wanted to say thank you to each and every individual from friends to family to the many new people I have met through the new San Clemente Surfboards & Art gallery thank you very much for all your support. Enjoy this day and more importantly we all should be thankful each and everyday we are on this earth. Choose your own path to follow it is your journey.

San Clemente Surfboards & Art by Paul Carter

This is a 6'2 by 19.75 and just under 2.50 thick.  This is a great board for point breaks and reef breaks.  This is a outline from the 80 to the 90s with a modern tail rocker.  The bottom is a single concave into a slight vee off the tale to keep the turns fast and flowing in the pocket of the wave.  This is the last one of three I shaped for the store. If you want a surfboard that will paddle and go as fast as you can at trestles then this is the board for you. I can shape any style Surfboard you are looking for. San Clemente Surfboards are all tested and ridden from myself to the many team riders on our growing team.  Come in and talk over your next custom, stock or used San Clemente Surfboard.  I'm consistently out in the water Surfing on new shapes and designs.  When ego is lost limit is lost-WD-

Surfing lowers on a San Clemente Surfboard

This was another beautiful day at the end of sepetmber with my friend Mike shooting.  This surfboard is a 6'4 round pin by 19 and 2.3/8 thick. This is a surfboard that works great in the power pocket of the wave.  The swell was running about 3 to 5 and great shape.  Ive since shaped two new surfboards and I'm currently selling this surfboard and a couple of others to keep the surfboards growing forward into the simple improvment for myself for you the customer.  Thanks for checking out my blog and website check in for the latest.  Come check all of the new and used surfboard.

Shaping Surfboards and Surfing in San Clemente

This was in september of 08 with my good friend Mike at lowers.  This board is the third generation off one of my favorite boards I have  surfed for over 8 years.  This is a 6'6 by 19.25 by 2.50 thick.  I grew up riding longboards and everything in between.  This board was a bit thick for my weight but it had plenty of drive and speed through the the slow sections.  In this photo I'm doing a speed check turn to set up for a drawn out bottom turn into the next section.  Speed and timing is the key to solid turns.  All of the surfboards used in the photo's are available and I'm in constant research and development with new boards on the way.  So stop by San Clemente Surfboards & Art  gallery and check out the boards.  I specialize in custom shaped Surfboards of all shapes and size's.  Stay tuned for more photo's to come.  

Surfing Lowers on San Clemente Surfboards

This is on a board Ive been riding for over eight years and I like to break it out when I'm in the developing stage for new boards.  This particular board is a 6'5 by 19.25 by 2.3/8 thick.  This board is very simple and very smooth with a flat bottom with slight vee off the tail.  It is 13.75 into a square tail.  This was a very good day and the waves were great for three days straight.  Stay tuned more photos to follow.  Ive shaped two new boards since with different bottom contours and dimensions.  Remember only focus on what you want in life.

Surfing Lowers on San Clemente Surfboards

This is a research and development day at trestles on my new San Clemente Surfboard.  I met up with my good friend mike aka chewy at 7ish at my store. This day I was feeling like riding a round pin so I picked out a 6'5 three fin by either 19.25 wide or maybe 19 and at least 2.3/8 thick.  We drove down El Camino Real to basilone to check it out and it was Id say 4 to 6ft swell happening at the infamous trestles skate park. The crowd was not to bad when the swell is pretty consistent.  Forgive me for the short blog but this is my first photo of many many different shots from surfing to surfboards to shaping to art.  So stay tuned for the next blog and remember what we think and feel becomes real.
