It started when I bumped into you at Fanuel St. a few weeks ago on the maiden voyage of your latest insane surfboat, to hearing a guy rave about your SUPs on the beach a few days later.
Then stopping by the other day and hanging with you at your shop was a real treat. I'll be back to get that 9'7"... real soon! It was so, well, LIGHT!

I bought one of Joe's 8'6" production SUPs about two weeks ago and it has become my favorite board in the quiver. It paddles nicely, catches waves easily and turns better than I expected. It's really a joy to ride.

Thanks for the opportunity to demo and be surf shop assistant for the morning joe. Wasn't sure I was ready for that 8-5 sports car of a board with just under 3 years surfing experience and 200 pounds. Happy to report that you matched us perfectly and I am looking forward to getting to the next level on the new SUP Green Dragon. Tons of fun hanging with you yesterday and an awesome first go out with my new SUP this morning at Topanga. You are indeed an expert match maker for sure.

Im liking your BigGuy Surfboards.

I'm an older surfer (heading towards age 63 @ 217 lbs). I've tried several different surfboard brands and I always come back to Joe. Simply the "best boards ever"!! They make you feel like a kid again!!. Thanks Joe and keep up the GREAT WORK!!!

I am having Joe shape a board right now. He has a huge amount of shape know for the bigger guy, he even is great witht he details of what really works. I borrowed a board of Joe's and it really able to narrow down the shape I wa looking for. The whole process has been awesome! I can't wiat to see the finished product, more to come in the future with photos of the board.

Hey Joe, about a year and a half ago I purchased one of your boards at a surf shop around Carlsbad. I had been living in Europe for the last 6 years and hadnt surfed since leaving for bootcamp. I didnt know anything about stand up paddling and I can't remember why I got talked into buying your board, but let me tell you... It changed everything!! I had my neck and legs broken over seas, coming home and not being able to ride dirt bikes anymore or any of that really bummed me out. Your board was like a big 10'2 angel to me! Unfortunately someone stole it off my jeep at spaghetti factory in San marcos, but I will be heading to your shop soon to get a new one. But I just wanted to tell ya how your work has made my life better!! I'm sure ya hear it all the time. And im not normally one to write a letter like this, but I really do love your work! Peter

I had a fun day :grin on your custom BLAIR 9'2" SUP you made for me. Thanks again for all the special requests I troubled you with, I am just loving this custom made SUP!

I need some help picking a SUP - I need a Two Piece SUP, I weigh 210lbs, about 6'1" 50yrs old- I want to surf the small waist high waves in Brigantine NJ. Which model do you suggest?

Looking for a longboard and surfboard- I guess asking more of what size you think would fit me, 6'4 315 any info would be a great help..

Joe, what an awesome web-site clearly understanding why you enjoy what you do. Stumbled onto you by researching other equipment in the field of GRP commonly known as FRP and glad I did. After looking into what you do I can see your passion for the craft and art of shaping. Just wanted to reach out and say hello adding I never worked a day in my life! With much respect, Tommy Solomon Yacht Repair & Restoration www.TommySolomon.com

Hi Joe- your boards look awesome- I had a question for you. My daughter is 5'3" and I am looking for a wooden paddle for her. What would that cost. Great web site

Hi Joe, enjoying the new 8'10" SUP...got a lot of looks and comments from the guys on my visit to Dog Patch, San O, last Saturday.

For those of you that may be new to the sport of SUP, or if you are familiar with SUP boards, and surfboards both short and tall. Joe's boards are not just different, they're better. Much better. They work better because they are designed to. Stop by the shop and try one out. You'll be hooked! Just like we were. Spend more time paddling and surfing, not swimming! Thanks for all you do Joe. "Changing the world, one board at a time" Aloha! Joe Blair, from Tracy and RC.

interested in some of your board shapes I am a great lake surfer and still want to ride a shorter board rather then a longboard and not having salt in the water leaves less float.I really like the &' egg shape thats 23" wide and 3" thick. Im a bigger guy 6'1" 210lbs and still compete and want a bigger board that i can turn hard and catch air

the best boards,,,,long or short. please check out my site. www.tonymaldi.com. swamis, rock point,,,scorpion bay.

Joe - thanks for all the big guy surf boards and sup paddle boards - you have made my surfing so much more fun. If you are a big guy and want the best boards call joe -

I bought a Blair 8'8" x 26" x 3.5"off the used rack. I'm 6'5" 320 pounds and have only ridden longboards. I paddled your board out this morning and had the best session ever. I never thought a board that big could be so fast and nimble. I can't wait to ride it again. Thanks.

Well Joe I think we're ready to purchase our paddle boards. Want to try out the ones you suggested to me for Shelley & I. Shoot me an email when you're back from Hawaii.

Big help, big help. And spueraltive news of course.
