Mexico...

Another quick day trip to Mex results in some memorable waves...Friend of a friend took some pics and sent these on.










Yes, it's much gnarlier and better than it looks in the pics...

Mexican Blanket?



So the deck pinline came out a little screwed up as you can see in the first pic. I used 50% UV sanding resin and 50% gloss resin with UV initiator and 2CC of MEKP for a base kick. Painted on the resin circles for my logo, then painted in the pinlines and took it out in the sun. It kicked so fast that when I pulled the tape some of the pinline came off with the tape...bummer! So I have sanded it down and will re-do the pinline with MEKP and do it the standard way I think...

As for the Mexican (Salvadorian) blanket look, I did the best I could with paint pens to make it look like my blanket, what do you think?
