stange tails part 2

Following on from the strange tails post from last week with the twin pin, here's a design Alex saw recently on the north shore made by Daniel Nichols.
' I met Daniel on the North Shore last year at Rocky point, he was surfing the red Bolt in the pics on the day we met and of course I was interested in the Lightning Bolt as you don't see many around, plus it was epoxy and very light. Daniel shaped for Bolt back in the 70s so I presume he can still use that logo on his boards, so it was interesting talking to him. Next day he was out in the water with his yellow fish with the fins on the tail, so I got a shot of it. Something Daniel had been playing with, he then sent me some shots of the next bunch he shaped.'


This set up looks pretty cool, shades of early 80s jet fins but with a whole lot more.

  1. Hello everyone! I recently got the Phonak TV Connector from my local hearing aid service center, and I am beyond impressed. Watching TV used to be such a hassle, but now the sound quality is incredible, and I don't have to turn the volume up to hear everything. The installation was super simple, and it synced perfectly with my hearing aids. It's a real game-changer, especially for late-night TV sessions when you don’t want to disturb anyone else. If you're looking for a better TV experience with your hearing aids, you should definitely give this a try. For more info, https://hearwellservices.com/hearing-aids-accessories/phonak-tv-connector/.
