Hoyte Designs and U.F.O. working with Tom Swift

Local surfer and designer, Tom Swift, has been living in Oxnard his whole life.

We were fortunate enough to meet and work with him, glassing his hand-crafted SUP, built out of

red wood, walnut and bamboo.*

Gloss and Polish - hence the fine reflection in the photo:)

Notice the Malcolm Campbell Bonzer logos.

You know you're somebody when Malcolm gives you permission to use this.

Congrats Tom! (you're the man!:)

A stoked customer.

If you see this guy, make sure to say hi!

Thanks Tom, had fun working with you.

Looking forward to board review.

Hoyte Custom Wave Arrow

This fun project came about due to a good friend of mine, Gus Acosta,  from Hawaii.

He has conceptualized a modern day Paipo, having

the bottom contours that follow the premise of a catamaran with modern day bodyboard function.

At 4'4 x 23 x 2 3/4 (before deck concave added), this looks more like a space vehicle than an aquatic one.

This bottom view shows the arrow in full glory.

Speed. Elegance. And Unique Design.



This view from the tail highlights the catamaran style channel and chimes.

Completed Wave Arrow photos to follow.

Stay tuned for next photo adventure.
