Its never been ridden, being glassed tomorrow. I never rode one. I am a hp shorty guy so I dont usually ride alternative shapes too often. Randy Budd shaped the board. I believe their is some Alaskan pine, local cedar and some other species in there. I will ask him again about the woods.
Randy teaches a class at the Tuckerton Seaport on alaia building. I know he oils only in class because of time, but for boards he makes for sale he glasses them I believe.
