Harrison Roach in “Proper by Any Measure” Roach’s surfing is mannered, refined, and unflappable. While grounded in the helmsmanship of heavy tankers, his approach also deftly ports over to all type of craft, pits, and walls. “Long before he won a world title in 2022,” Michael Adno writes in TSJ 33.3, “Harrison Roach was known as a surfer’s surfer, admired for balancing a career that was made from equal parts curiosity, creativity, and complexity. Some knew him for winning three Duct Tape Invitationals and for surfing for brands like Rhythm, Deus, and Roark, some from appearing in films by Thomas Campbell and Andrew Kidman, always surfing longboards well, properly surfing single-fins at Pipe and alaias in heavy surf.” Hit the link to read “Proper by Any Measure: From Noosa Shire to the Bitter South with Harrison Roach” in full. https://www.surfersjournal.com/editorial/harrison-roach-proper-by-any-measure/

Surfing is Losing it's Greatest Generation of Handshapers Through the lens of Robin Prodanovich shaping his last board (around the 40,000th of his career), Todd Prodanovich reports on how surfing is losing its greatest generation of high-production handshapers, and what will happen to the culture and practice of building surfboards once they’re gone. “At some point in the not-too-distant future, we will be living in a world in which the greatest generation of handshapers that ever lived is no longer able to contribute to the craft. To be clear: As a discipline, handshaping itself isn’t going anywhere. While mass-production handshapers have been replaced by machines, a new breed of boutique board builders continues to connect surfers to our lineage of craftsmanship, even in the Costco era. “But handshaping is a different game now, with different incentives, and it produces both different boards and different board builders. Never again will a shaper need, or want, to produce 40,000 surfboards by hand in their career. So how will our craft culture change when this motherlode of experience is no longer there to be mined?” Read “The Last One” in full here: https://www.surfersjournal.com/editorial/last-one-handshapers/
