Welcome To The Custom World

For those of you who have never had the pleasure of ordering a custom surfboard you are in for a real ride! Getting involved in the actual process of the making of your new board is a much more stylish and soulful approach on your quest for the magic model you need. Sure, you can always go and just buy one off the rack, and you'll be in the water with it that day, but the bottom line is:

"That for about the same amount of money, you can come to our facility, have a one on one shaping consultation with Mike, at which time you can voice your needs, your ability and your body stats can be recorded, as well as what you want to accomplish with this particular board, not to mention choosing you own colorwork and getting your named signed on the board under the glass."

Custom ordering a board built just for you is a wonderful process for the surfer who wants and expects a little more when the all important decision needs to be made on what you expect to get out of your first, or next surfboard.

When browsing the internet in search of a shaper there are some things you should consider. The company should have a physical public address. Most people are miffed at why we are not located on the highway. Manufacturers of surfboards must be zoned properly, usually in an industrial area, which is normally not on the highway. That should be across the board for all shapers. Keep it real, order from a real facility, and support the shaper who is performing his craft the right way. MDC is and will always be handcrafted in the USA.

The Materials We Use

We'd like to explain the tremendous search effort we have put into locating the finest polyesters and epoxy resins on the market right now. Our cloth, while being durable is also a brilliant white and our resins are superior in strength as well as clarity. All of these fine products are manufactured right here in Texas and we use this knowledge and availability to our advantage by cranking out a product that is superior in quality at a fair price. Like most seasoned shapers our company was all about the quality and wide selction of Clark Foam. After the abrupt closing of Clark in Dec of 05, we accepted the challenge and went the extra mile to find blanks that were comprable to Clark. The polyurethane blanks we currently have in stock are US Blanks, former employees of Clark Foam, and the Brazilain blanks, Teccel.

The Skinny On Epoxy

Mike has built epoxy boards for over 15 years now using EPS blanks manufactured in Texas. They are usually on the high performance end of the building realm, but in the last year we had a run on epoxy longboards. Epoxies are lighter, give you more float, and are more responsive. It is a good weapon to have in your quiver, especially on small gutless days. If you are competing, an MDC epoxy is a MUST. We are currently tooled up to build the public ALL THINGS EPOXY. It is an exciting time because we know that the blanks have evolved in just the last 2 years. The newest line of eps blanks from companies such as Marko and US Blanks feature eps that is MOLDED. NOTE: EPOXY SURFBOARDS ARE MADE IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS, AND MANY COME FROM THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES!!!
