Nirvana Found

' For nearly 15 years I wondered  the history of the mould Tony Burge found on a garbage cleanup in Marouba! It was obviously one of George Greenough 's mould's but the history was a mystery and I always wondered where the other boards made from this mould might be. There was another colour on the mould edge giving a hint.Last week I met kneeboarder Bob Geraghty  who lives just up the road and we chatted about spoons and he said he had a few as well as a Greenough edge spoon in his collection . Guess what? It is out of the same mould !!! I have found the sister board made by George! Bob has had it sprayed to look real cool ( blue rails, red bottom pictured below) and still has the pre resto pic's and the original colour matches the run over on my mould's edge ! All that searching and wondering over the years and the answer has turned up just down the street! '



2 of Georges personal mats.....super lightweight fabric compared to today's!



Camera Board

Its 5 feet long and 21" wide.....with runners! This is my personal spoon that was built by Neal and out of the same mould! In 2015 I took it among st other craft to Sumatra and rode it a couple times, so this is the vision below!

Richard Gifford Palmer

Richard called in the other night and brought around a new spoon that he was commissioned to make for Sally Bayliss ! The mould was purchased by Sally and Richard has spent the past few years building a mini paipo and now the full spoon from the original mould!
