Jacob Ells

I asked my friend Jacob Ells of Jive Surf if I could film him shaping a board he’s making for me and he was kind enough to open up his workspace for me last week.  I love his words about shaping boards: “It's about the relationship, the interaction, the creation formed between the shaper and the surfer. It's the expression of one's inner person that spreads love and deepens the connection. The closer you are to that moment and the more you are involved with that creation the more love and joy are experienced and shared.”
