Tom Morey sign on the Big Island
I read a sign had been installed on the BIg Island commemorating Tom Morey and the boogie board, one side, on the other information about paipo boards. This link depicts the sign at Honis Beach Park: https://kauainownews.com/2021/11/06/wave-riders-pay-tribute-to-tom-morey-creator-of-the-modern-day-b...

Re: Hand Plane Peahi
Very impressive. Just catching those waves is an achievement, let alone riding them.

Re: A Ripple in the Force
Thanks Uncle G.
Anyone have access to Bazooka, written by Tom Morey, which appeared in the first issue of The Surfers Journal?

Re: A Ripple in the Force
Thanks Nels. I liked his boogieboard style . I also thought this quote was pretty good: “Hey! A lot of my multimillionaire friends . . . they’re gone,” Mr. Morey said in 2007. “Nobody’s trying to kidnap my kids, because they don’t have any money! I’m not running from the IRS. I don’t have any kind o...

Re: A Ripple in the Force
Uncle G,
I just watched a video with him and his wife, they both seemed pretty cool people.
Do you know anything his flippers?
Thanks
Bob

Re: A Ripple in the Force
I never really rode one but from what I've read an innovative guy. Some interesting stuff here: https://www.ocregister.com/2021/10/15/tom-morey-inventor-of-the-boogie-board-dies-at-age-86/ Anyone know about Morey's flippers? He talks about them in this interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWZ2...

Re: Mini Paipos
It will be interesting to hear what difference the bottoms make on this style of board, especially given your riding position isn't on the board as such.

Song with a paipo reference
It's not often you come across a song that references paipo boards. The first part of this video is from the original writer of the song who asks people to come up with a verse. At around 0.46 you start to see & hear Stig Waidelich, son of John Waidelich one of the originators of the Paipo Nui s...

Re: Paulownia paipo
Are you using the fibreglass board much. Once you have a few boards, it is hard to regularly use them all. It is fun, pulling out a board that you haven't surfed for a while.

Re: First Build
I thought about this some more - my fibreglass boards are some where like 6KG. You might even get away with 1/2" . What were you going to seal it with - if it was oil you could always test and refine. If varnished, you pretty much got what you have.

Re: First Build
8kg would be too heavy. Do the waves have power? Given you are doing a standing start, you just want something that will get picked up. Have you seen UK bellyboards?

Re: Velo Flex spoon Build
They don't have a lot of float, but more than if just bodysurfing.
There was a Swaylocks thread on different construction methods.

Is it going to be finned?

Re: Paipo Slippah
It's kinda strange that they don't even try to include a photo of a paipo board in the marketing. I can see a link to riding a paipo here: "It’s an effortless feeling. Like you’re floating, mindless, free." but the rest looks like it comes from the Surfers Journal. I'm not sure what "...

Re: Mini Paipos
Gday M,
I had a fun bank to myself up the sunny coast this morning. I used to go to the spit a bit about 10-12 years but crowds just took the fun out of it.
I'll look at instagram when i get home in a day or so. I need to find my password, its not something iI ook at much.
