    Yeah Rockaway Tom Cena the most hated man in surfing. He bought Cayon, Chanllenger, Plastic Fantastic, Surfboards Australia and a few other . Kept the right and has them made over sea. I am shocked nobody fire bombed his surf shop in Rockaway Beach

    How exactly does it work with Surftech and these other major companies like CI and Rusty among others? Do they just sell the rights or do they just a get a percentage of what they sell with their name on it?

    Surfboard comapanies will allow surftech to make boards with there name on it as long as they get a % of the profits.

    And people wonder why our economy is such a mess. Surfboard shaping is an art and craft.
    Buy a board shaped by a master and you will feel the difference right away.

    This a a double edge sword . Pay or a buy a board from a local shaper and feed there family or buy a pop out and what you save feed yours. To the seasoned surfer this is a no brainer but, the beginer or someone wanting to get back in the water after a long hiatous the cheaper road is usually the best option in there eye. With the current state of our economy people gotta save money someplace.
