Now I have known Jim Dunlop for many many years now. I own 9 of his boards from 6′ to 9’10″. His shapes and completely handmade and his knowledge of shapes and designs is extraordinary. Also his knowledge of the local surf is for real for he has surfed all over the world and here for 40ish years now. He knows what you need just after talking to you for a few minutes. His boards will perform flawlessly in this stuff we call surf. The boards that you buy from the Big Surf Shops here are built to catch the eye of the want to be surfer and are not made for the waves we have here. Jim has changed the shapes that I needed over the years due to my massive weight gains cause of lung troubles. Now that I’m a lean mean surfing machine again. I will be out there this summer. So I hope to see you out in the line up and also riding a Custom Handmade Mystic Surfboard. Later Bra
