STICKY PIG WANTS TO GET WET

Finished and needing a wash.
9'6" x 23" x 3"
Wide point 6" behind centre.
N 17''
T 17"
pod 7"

Surfblanks 'Slick' foil.

The outline was born in the 60's.
The nose to 12" is from a 'DALE' Pocket Rocket / Tracker.
12" to wide point 'GORDON WOODS' circa 65/66.
Wide point to pod 'SHANE' step deck circa 68/69.

And mini me of sorts.
I shaped the little double ender in 2008.
I spent some time pondering on the colour work.
And I kept coming back to mini me.

STICKY PIG

This one is a little bit more subtle than my last one.
Wide point 6'' not 12" behind the mid point.
The tail is 17" not 18".
The nose is the same 17".
Also less rocker and
less bottom camber.

This one was shaped from a proper blank.
None of this rescue board malarkey.
Got hold of some cheap blanks from a
closing down sale.
