The first General surfboards were shaped and glassed in my garage up at Inches Cross and later at Ivyleaf hill. Had many incredible times with Paul early including surftrips to Irelands west coast. After zI moved to Australi I introduced Paul to Murray Bourton at Pipedreams and then his boards moved into a new era. PS Sill have one of Roger Adams creations with an Ivyleaf Logo no other id marks, surfed it for years. Currently in Bude at 70 years old and still getting a couple most days on my 9.6 mal.<br />Johny Cutts (JC)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10507827448966482907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620952922253468884.post-47530384864985074522017-02-03T11:47:01.640+00:002017-02-03T11:47:01.640+00:00Any one know anything about somebody called "...Any one know anything about somebody called "Rabbit" who shaped for general surfboards?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620952922253468884.post-54080273928165874232016-09-20T20:59:08.386+01:002016-09-20T20:59:08.386+01:00I also still have a General thruster surfboard abo...I also still have a General thruster surfboard about 6'8 shaped by Paul Jury in beautiful condition.

I believe my Dad designed the Generals logo and also Sick Pig surfboards. There was also a Ju's Generals cricket team in Bude until dad passed, now its Rogers Generals. They wear the same logo as the Generals boards on their shirts. We still have some boards I think in mums garage. I can ask mum any questions you may have about them, Roger Tout still lives a few doors down from mum so ample opportunity to ask away - claire.themadamsagency@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620952922253468884.post-72412783605826301162013-01-12T21:17:25.416+00:002013-01-12T21:17:25.416+00:00Hi, I have one of this surfboard :-)
