SIMON ANDERSON
It's well known that Simon Anderson put three fins on a surfboard
in 1980, which changed the face of surfing and is still the predominant
design today. As a professional surfer, Simon was one of the elite
in the world who shaped his own equipment. He was always striving
to find the best design to get that edge. Today he still has that
same dedication and energy as he endeavours to perfect his designs.
DARREN HANDLEY
Based on the Gold Coast, the DHD logo has become synonymous with
the area's world famous sand bottom barrels. But it's not just the
locals who crave DH's high speed, lightweight state-of-the-art equipment,
the world's best queue up for his high performance boards. Remaining
at the forefront of design and performance is DH's driving force.
BRETT WARNER
Brett burst forth onto the shaping scene following a career in pro
surfing and quickly earned a reputation and cult following among
hardcore, underground Aussie surfers who demanded no frills performance
equipment. From the back beaches of the country to the international
world stage, Brett's boards are made to suit all levels of competence.
MARK PHIPPS
A Victorian transplant who spends half of each year in Southern
France, "Phippsy" knows what the world's surfers are demanding.

globe.

A four time world champion, pioneer of the twin fin and a household
name, Mark Richards is regarded as one of the absolute greats of
surfing. Following 30 years of shaping, which includes tutelage
under the great Hawaiian, Dick Brewer, MR's boards could be considered
as much a collectors item as they are a joy to ride!
WAYNE LYNCH

Wayne's finely crafted surfboards are sought after by demanding
clientele who seek perfection in their equipment. Ideal for the
perfect waves of the world.
