2 new Balsa DT’s.

2 new 9’10” Speed Shapes.
So when Donald was last in Australia, he made himself a superb looking 9’10” DT-1 for himself to surf in the Noosa Festival of Surfing. The board was absolute magic and he left it here with us when he left. Anyone who rode this thing knew that Donald was definitely onto something when saying this was his “everyday board”.
Not just for small stuff, this design at this sort of length lends itself to surfing anything, especially overhead waves.
These 2 came up looking phenomenal. DT would be stoked.

Tyler Warren Riding A Model T.
So after the sudden and very shocking passing of D.T. there were a few people who got the last custom boards he shaped before going to surf perfect lefts everyday up above.
Pickle was one such person, and shows us why both he and a Model T are a noseriding match made in heaven.

Awesome Article on D.T.
Apologies for the delay on posts lately. Between an extended trip to Europe and also a little stint in the snow, it’s been a long time away from home/the factory but that still doesn’t mean there hasn’t been heaps going on! More posts to come very very soon.
In the meantime take a read through this article Liquid Salt did on Donald a couple of years ago. D.T has truly seen it all come and go and there’s some nice questions in here for people to get a little insight into what makes him tick…..
