My friend planted the board on the coast and I played it off as a late valentines gift!

Shes always wanted a twin fin with a solid teal color and a deep swallow tail. Total old school board.

Wood keels!

But the board i had made had "Marry me" glassed under it on the stringer!

She could hardly talk, she said yes, and stuck her shaking hand out! Edit: she said yes for sure, dont worry lol. Just watched the video for confirmation haha.

I think she was more pumped on the board than the ring.

Shaped by Jim Ellington at Ellignton Surfboards with help from Bird at Bird's Surf Shed.

Congrats surf bros! I love Ellington, my first board was a used Ellington 8ft fun board, she’s buckled so she’ll hang on my wall forever!

And in tragic irony she's eaten by a shark while riding that board on your honeymoon. If that's irony... maybe not.

It's a surf board, not an irony board.
