Jacob Bullock Surfboards

Those of you that know me, know that I've been getting boards from Jacob Bullock (http://bullocksurfboards.com/) for some time now. I think I've had him shape me 6 up to this point, with three more boards currently on the way. Jacob used to work here in Oceanside at OSI glassing, shaping his own boards, doing some 'production' work for a couple different shapers, and polishing many of the beautiful Takayama boards that make their way through the factory. Not long ago, he decided to turn his operation into a one-man show, moving into his private 'lab' in neighboring Fallbrook and putting out incredible boards for a growing number of stoked local (and not so local) folks. Occasionally he sends boards through a couple of local glass shops, but most are designed, shaped, and glassed by him alone, allowing for control over every step of the build process. Needless to say, his boards are insane and I, for one, will continue getting most of my surfboards through Jacob. He's a really good guy, incredibly stoked on building surfboards that work, and has a very bright future ahead of him has a respected board builder. Hit him up if you're in the market for a board, long or short! Pics of the boards Jacob has shaped me...

  1. Dude, the quad is delectable. Something a little shorter with the same width/thickness would be awesome for me. I just need to dump your old MTF to get one. ;-)
