The Singer
Danny Hess Surfboards “The Singer” model in EPS/epoxy, Amaploa, Cork, and Poplar construction designed and shaped by Danny Hess. Artwork by Thomas Campbell in celebration of his movie “The Present”. From Danny Hess: “T-Moe and I love Rich Pavel and Lyle Carlson quad fishes, and we wanted to take such a template and make it so it surfed a little more progressively, more in the pocket type of surfing. So the Singer is designed to bridge the gap between a performance thruster and a quad fish. Allowing one to take a familiar quad fish line in steep drivey waves, a quad fish that fits that type of wave. The color jobs resulted from playing around with different resin tints glassed over drawings that T-Moe draws directly over the board with graphite. I use Amaploa, Cork, and Poplar for the perimeter rails and the wood skin for the deck and the bottom. And EPS for the core of the board. The EPS core is recycled content foam which a plant in the East Bay produces by chopping down old Styrofoam and blowing it back into new blanks. Then the board is sealed with 4 oz fiberglass and epoxy resin. I am very convinced that currently this is the best combination of materials in terms of the best combination of performance, longevity and quality, but I will continue to evolve and explore so I can offer multiple technologies and feels, one of which will be a completely biodegradable surfboard.”
