  • What's up guys! In this episode, you will get an in-depth conversation about the Mini Simmons design and full process of ordering a custom hand shaped surfboard with Shea Somma @sheasomma
    Somma Special Designs began in my backyard shed in 2008 with a desire to create and sample the many niche board designs from obscure corners in surfing that he had been curious to try for years. Hulls, logs and fishes were the first three areas of inquiry and he has been chasing the unique sensations offered by alternative designs ever since. He believes surfboards are conduits to experiences and him, as a shaper, has the privilege of guiding those experiences through the shapes he creates. He believes in hand shaping as a creative practice that allows him to tune shapes to different riders at will, in the moment. Shaping by hand, for him, is a daily practice that is both supremely functional and personally gratifying.
    Different design attributes lead to different sensations in the rider, and the goal in creating a design is to conjure an array of sensations into a perfectly balanced board. Speed with control. Responsiveness with stability. Paddle power with sensitivity. Refined beauty with durability. The goal is to make beautiful hand made objects that function incredibly well and last decades. Let’s make something rad together! - Shea Somma

    Yo Skip, that turn you made at 14:46 is like one of the cleanest on rail turn I've seen you do haha. I feel that looseness helps you surf the board as its intended and Joe sure knows his stuff.

    Love your content Skipper, as someone soon to move to NYC I feel totally inspired to surf in a city I previously felt was without surf. Keep the content coming, the views will continue to grow!

    You guys were both super stoked on the original mini simms that morning! Super cool that you literally went right to the bay to make a board inspired by the local conditions and the experience of surfing that historic shape!
