NOTION SURFBOARDS


As you know posts have been scarce on here recently. I have been hard at work developing a new surfboard label based in the Outer Banks, NC. Notion surfboards will focus on building boards for the east and west coast using materials that are friendly to our family, friends and the environment. We will continue to use plant based resins, recycled foams, re-purposed wood, and a combination of natural and synthetic cloths to make durable, high performance, non toxic surfboards that work well in a large range of wave conditions. The board pictured below is a concept that I have been developing, using a recycled EPS frame and rails to make a hollow body surfboard with re-purposed wood skins. I am really excited about how this board and the Ecoboards we have been building ride and hold up to abuse. We will continue to build all kinds of custom boards but will focus on building more sustainable surf craft. If you want to follow our adventure, we have a new website in the works www.notionsurfboards.com and a new blog www.notionsurfboards.com/blog also be sure to like us on Facebook while you are checking out the blog because we will be posting new updates there as well. Thanks you all for supporting JNS Boards and I look forward to continuing to build custom, handcrafted boards as Notion Surfboard. Jake

6'8" Round Tail with Double Wings


Jacobs new 6'8", Custom paint by Jacob himself, granny fabric rail patches, Single fin box + quad futures, so many options for so many waves. I heard through the coconut wireless that Jacob loved this board when he rode it for the first time other day at a sharky nor cal cove notorious for smuggling pirates and big mountains of water. Jake.
Oh yeah it's made with eco conscious pine sap epoxy and recyclable EPS foam, light on the environment and the arm.

Swell Socks


My wife has been sewing up these sweet board socks recently. She even found time to make me one. They are made out of all recycled and re-purposed fabrics. There are two in the 9 foot range at the surf shop that need homes or she can make custom sizes to fit your board. Let me know if anyone is interested.
