The BLACKBOARD’s shape is based on boards right out of the mid to late 50’s, pig ground zero.

The FOIL III is the 1967 version, foiled and finned late 60’s style.  I used to call these “Australian Foils” (because it was loosely based on by “SAM” and others like it ) until I found that Bing had a model of the same name in the 60’s.  This prompted the name change.

I know the BLACKBOARD’s pure 50’s  shape isn’t for everybody and I thought  bringing this model back might be a good idea to give customers an option.

We’re on the cover of  the South Coast Plaza Magazine……and The Surfing Heritage Gallery is now officially named The Surfing Heritage Museum.  So overnight these Cooperfishes went from being in a gallery to being in a museum.  Very cool.
