“The herds never make a breakthrough, but individuals do”

We are delighted to introduce you to one of the true innovators in surfing – Geoff McCoy.  Geoff McCoy’s reputation within surfing is well known the world over.  Whether you’re a fan or not, one thing is for sure – Geoff is a man who has built a reputation as being one of the true innovators within the surfing industry.  He’s shaped for many surfing greats, and his designs have inspired many surfboard shapers over the past 20 years.  Geoff is a true individual whose belief in his own experience and knowledge has helped him keep designing new shapes, no matter how different they were from the rest of the industry. Because of this, he is regarded as one of the most significant surf board shapers in the history of the sport.
