6’4” Slob Craft Bent Time FathersDay22

6’4” Slob Craft Bent Time FathersDay226'4" Andrew Doheney is a local surfer shaper whose boards we have been wanting to get into the shop for some time now. If you've seen Andrew surf before you can probably come up with a good idea of how his boards are meant to be ridden. Down the line speed paired with powerful turns are what's on the agenda. The Big Thruster is no exception. The outline is very reminiscent of late 80s early 90s power sleds: narrow and pointy. The rails are foiled out

The board has a relatively straight outline with softer rails running a majority of the board until they meet a hard edge running through the tail

with a nice subtle curve throughout

and a little more width in the tail than you generally see in Liddle's models accompanied by a rounded squash tail

This rail will function as the surfer's bottom turning rail

a weight that is heavy yet balanced

Surf historians often say that this board is responsible for beginning surfing's Transition Era that spanned from roughly 1967 - 1969 where the mainstream surfboard change dramatically to allow surfers to surf in more critical sections of the wave

this board excells in down the line

Additionally

It worked so well and was so shreddy that we set out to contact Liddle Surfboards to unearth the template and remake the board
