7'11" Dick Brewer Pintail
7'11"
Words from Chuck Brewer -
Very classic early 70’s Brewer step-up that might help transport you to an essential moment, a finite line. From a pivotal time of design, with some subtle edge and nose refinements made by Dick later in his shaping life. These are designed to handle some solid swell and charge some energy, but as RB used to say “Don’t wait for a big day, ride it now “. Get intimate with board, feel the glide, find the “speed spot” even on some little wave energy. Feel the feeling, make friends and have one around for those special voyages or big swells.
Shapers Musing by Alrik Yuill-
My intention with these boards is to keep my fingerprint to a minimum while at the same time letting things flow, channeling the spirit + my learning and feel of numerous iterations of design. Dick was a living and ever evolving shaper and designer. These shapes aren’t exact copies of one singular board but are dedicated to faithfully bringing to life the spirit within the shapes and designs.
Happy to have helped reawakened some life into these timeless shapes so they will be felt in the water by current and next generation of wave riders. These surfboards have been thoughtfully tuned. With the help of modern tech and dedicated friends, together we have honored Dick’s spirit.
It started when walking around Brewer family vault of boards. It became more real when Hank lent me his Brewer to ride; friends trusted me with their prized 70’s Brewers, and then the kind guidance from Gary Linden, Pat Rawson, and visit with Jack Reeves. This has been so meaningful to me and I am forever grateful for their voices as part of and what has made these boards special.
On the tech front, Tristan scanning and measuring with a mindfulness to the nano, quality blanks, Brando and Kevin delivered precision cuts, and the boys at Golden State Glassing; Brian Anderson, Jay Boy, Eddy, Ryan Manne down to the pin lines beautifully articulated by Terry! It took a whole lot of care by the whole crew every step of the way!
