(Let's hope it's legit) .... Click to expand... Are you talking about you and your cats when you use the word "we". I'm still waiting on your answer. However, I'm beginning to think you don't a actually have any information regarding the topic I've asked about. It's starting to feel like your comments are just for your own entertainment. Maybe someone will come across this thread and share some information regarding my question that you claimed you had an answer to, but don't actually seem to.

I do know that Gene and Lance do share some shaping space with Adam Davenport in Ventura, and Adam does a lot of glassing for both. That is the only connection I know of, other than the fact that Gene has shaped a fair number of bitchin' Vs, having done one that I had the experience of owning/riding while I lived on the East Coast..

127686 4784 Gene and Lance have begun making V-bottoms 29 Chilly Willy Feb 6, 2018 2018-02-06T09:07:20-0500 Looks sweet! Okay, I've gotta ask: what's the deal with V-bottoms? School me a bit. I thought V-bottoms were a thing for a short while in the late 60s and then the industry as a whole pretty much passed on them. I seem to remember hearing that they spun out too easily. Why is it back and what improvements have been made to make it a thing again? I know there are some V-bottom fanatics out there (I'm looking at you, @shadydave ). What's all the hype about, and why?

At times there's a pattern I've noticed. Mike will remain focused on shapers that he once had a close relationship with. After the falling out, there remains an edge whenever those names are mentioned. Apparently even in connection with other shapers. All conjecture on my part of course.

If anything, it seems that bit I found on Lance's page ads mystery to the idea. Who knows? I'm guessing there is more to it than Lance just waking up one day and saying "I'm going to make V bottoms". Maybe not.

If anyone had any more info worth sharing they would. Lance's inspiration to collaborate with Gene on V bottoms is not this interesting. If someone had something on it, I'd be keen to hear it. However, I think leaving it like this is good for our resident ailurophile. It's going to remain as it is. Lance is on record saying he had nothing to do with them, now he has something to do with them. Fun stuff.

127733 4784 Gene and Lance have begun making V-bottoms 45 icecreamheadache Feb 7, 2018 2018-02-06T22:20:17-0500 I like Lance. I met him a few years ago. At the fairgrounds in Ventura during one of those Scott Bass shows that by name sounded vaguely like a half-rate church that might be located in one of those industrial storage places where our favorite shapers of ill repute ply their trades. I was working for him setting up booths in exchange for a few days getting thrown into that weird 50 something "I shoulda been a surf pro" world where any sort of has-been thing you liked as a kiddo gets mentioned and homeboy would be like "you liked that? let me introduce you to the guy..." So anyway, I had my cut off camo shorts with the three row pyramid studded belt and wife pleaser (wifebeater sounds so... triggering) on like I was waiting for my cameo for an Agnostic Front video with the pockets positively full of Bubble Gum wax, Rainbow fins and a grip of other loot. We had just gotten done putting together the last of the portable shaping bays and the boys from Island Brewing in Santa Barbara had come by with a few cases of their imminently drinkable swill. The Surftech van had just showed up and rather than socking Randy French in the kisser for the shit he pulled when I was an under-aged kid working in his godforsaken cancer cluster of a sweatshop in Stevenson, Washington (why go overseas when you can prey on displaced forest workers in the Northwest who have fallen so deep into alcohol and what we used to call crank that they don't even mind if you don't give them adequate [read: any] safety equipment or take deductions out of their meager pay that aren't actually getting applied anywhere?), I manifested a positively positive mental attitude by stealing the three six packs of beer that were left on the Surftech table and fucking off out the back door to drink a couple by the train tracks with whatever weirdos walked by.

I am an ignorant surfer, I don't know Lance work in terms of boards, but I do know well Cooper's boards. They are supreme. so what is the big issue that a guy who is not well known in V bottom, starts shaping them? Do you have to have a fucking Phd and a master degree in V bottom to shape one? also by your side is a professor of v Bottom gimme a break, let those two guys do what they know, and enjoy the results, before jumping like old ladies in a town fair asking for credentials

I read a beach grit article about Richie that was pretty classic. Reminded me of an experience I observed down at my wave one morning. It might have been him. This contest was getting started as I was walking back up. This dad was going mental on the beach screaming about where his child should sit and which wave they should paddle for. It seemed so far from what surfing is to me.

You need proof? FACT: Both Gene and Lance took a short hiatus from shaping in the summer for '91...spending the season TOGETHER on the small island of Culebra, just east of Puerto Rico.

Two excellent craftsman with a ton of experience that also enjoy sharing time in the shaping bay. Perfect scenario for anyone looking for a board. Who cares about the "why".
127830 4784 Gene and Lance have begun making V-bottoms 83 Macilious Feb 8, 2018 2018-02-08T10:13:02-0500 I think that "Rican Havoc" is the Winner and should be screen name that is awarded. An earned honor like an MVP or maybe it should go to ICH or Miscreant. Both seems worthy for different reasons. I am disappointed they did name the new CoLab "Meredith" or some jumbled form of it (like Deer Mith) since it was something they both seemed to enjoy riding... One could have designed the length and the other the girth. (Footnote AppleCat's post).

I agree with this sentiment. The spark that motivated the board to be built has no impact on its functionality. I wonder if other shapers that have shaped boards by blending each other's templates and designs have called it a collaboration? Or did they just do it and carry on? Probably a little of both occur. It seems like these type boards can be thought of as chimeras.

It's a V bottom, but naturally far superior to anything that you would have seen.. (nod to AK for the Roy memory jog)

127847 4784 Gene and Lance have begun making V-bottoms 88 ekim Feb 9, 2018 2018-02-08T21:59:42-0500 Emailed Gene a couple of months back about ordering a V-bottom. He said he's not taking orders but you can get them shaped by Mat at Bing. Fowler has been honing a similar version with heavy vee off the like Gene's for years now.Andreini and Hilbers have a different take with the vee going flat out back. Have not tried the latter ones yet.
127852 4784 Gene and Lance have begun making V-bottoms 89 pilau Feb 9, 2018 2018-02-09T04:04:21-0500 I have coopers v’s. I’ve been a true believer for a while. I had a Fowler. Nowhere near the same. Sold. All you chuckleheads with the Collins remarks... it was a brain fart. I’m typing on my phone. Beat it kook. Or continue to masturbate in public online. Whatever’s.
127853 4784 Gene and Lance have begun making V-bottoms 90 pilau Feb 9, 2018 2018-02-09T04:19:36-0500 Gene is a v bottom guy. This is not new. Davenport is a nice guy from my brief interaction with him. He seems to be a well respected glasser. Tyler etc. Lance CARSON. His reputation stands on its own merit. I don’t care about the laminate. If gene is pumped on a new v bottom. I’m in. Board can be clear no lams for all I care.

Click to expand... Why so triggered Colin? My talking about Lance Collins on this thread has nothing personal to do with you or a misspelling from an iPhone interaction. It speaks more to the absurdity of the platform we all hold so dear to us. Seriously? Who cares? Boards are boards regardless of who thought about them, or what was thought about them, or who shaped them, or who talked about them online, or what laminate is on them.

None of my comments are intended to be particularly supportive or nefarious. They are just an objective genuine inquiry. Now there is talk of playing pocket pool in public.

For the record, SG...I recently procured a high-end, hand-crafted 9'6 board bag from "Into Blue & Green". Artisan craft. Ran me near $300...but I was told Laird ran his fingers along the stitching & snickered with girlish delight. I thought I heard him murmur "...I've seen tighter cinches in Kalama's mom's something-something..." I understand she staunchly disapproved of c-sections... Not to mention, Machado would later text me asking me why my name is suddenly coming up over fireside jokes on the north shore. I now stare at this bag...and whisper to myself..."what a great collab." Image processing. Refresh page to view
