1-DA WHAT IT FEELS LIKE? Here’s what Craig had to say yesterday about his son’s new MASS DESTRUCTION:
“I bought a 5`4` Mass Destruction for my 12 year old a few months ago. Since, his surfing has improved and its obvious this board is everything he will need moving forward. I`m already planning to just buy the next size up when he grows out of this one.
Great board made by friendly, knowledgable, skilled people. Thankyou Gav and Nikki.”

1-DA WHAT IT FEELS LIKE? Here’s what Oliver had to say about his 2 new custom ELITE surfboards:
“I have surfed for 25yrs or so, during that time I would have had 50 or more boards, including at least 15 or so custom’s. I can truly say without a doubt the entire process at 1-DA is exceptional and 2nd to none. From the unbelievable communication with making the original booking and throughout the process, through to Gav’s genuine love of making boards I cant recommend them high enough. I have had a fair few surfs on my new boards now and they are inline with the entire 1-DA experience – that is exceptional! You have a customer for life with me!”

1-DA WHAT IT FEELS LIKE? Here’s what Rick had to say about his ELITE in 1-DA epoxy technology:
“My 6’0” 1-DA Elite in epoxy technology is the only board I’ve been riding since I got it about 6 months ago. Goes well in all waves from barrels to the beaches and points. I chose your business because it’s fast becoming the board of choice in Taranaki, with some of the top local surfers riding them so had to try one for myself and loved it after feeling it out. The boards I have (I have 3 1-DA’s in the quiver now) are going really well and I like how Gavin is available to discuss options and make adjustments to the boards to suit my surfing. I will definitely be sticking to the 1-DA’s going forward. I like that I know I can just grab that 1 board, head to the beach and it’s going to perform.”

The boards I have (I have 3 1-DA’s in the quiver now) are going really well and I like how Gavin is available to discuss options and make adjustments to the boards to suit my surfing. I will definitely be sticking to the 1-DA’s going forward. I like that I know I can just grab that 1 board, head to the beach and it’s going to perform.”
1-DA Shapes Surfboards are available in Taranaki through Chip and the crew at @beachstreetnz

1-DA WHAT IT FEELS LIKE? Here’s what Nasser had to say about his new custom HYPO 5’ 6 ½” x 20 ½” x 2 ¾” 35.5L wood stringer EPS blank with epoxy glassing:
“A message to all the surfers and surfing communities. My name is Nasser. This review is an honest one with no bollocking! I’ve came across Nikki and Gav through a friend of mine who recommended these guys to shape a board for me that I’ve had since being back living in Australia. So the board was sent up to Gavin and the instructions were can you copy this? He said yes. Well well without knowing me or seeing me he delivered a bloody cracker of a board which I was blown away!!! Guys, do yourself a favour, contact this husband and wife team and bloody order a board and support this small family business. 💯 you won’t go anywhere else.”

1-DA WHAT IT FEELS LIKE? Here’s what Glenn had to say about his new KNEEBOARD in 1-DA epoxy technology:
“Best kneeboard I`ve ridden! Unique blend of bottom concaves allows speed and great manoeuvrability right in the pocket, where you want to be. Drives off the bottom hard with nice release out of the lip. Very controllable coming down in the white water in close-out sections. Surfed it as a quad which I feel suits the board, with stiff solid fibreglass fins. They balance the flex from the EPS construction and help the board maintain speed in and out of turns. Will be ordering a step up for Indo next year. Thanks heaps Gavin and Nikki, fantastic service!”

“I bought a 5`4` Mass Destruction for my 12 year old a few months ago. Since, his surfing has improved and its obvious this board is everything he will need moving forward. I`m already planning to just buy the next size up when he grows out of this one.
Great board made by friendly, knowledgable, skilled people. Thankyou Gav and Nikki.”

“I sat down with Gav and placed a custom order for a 7.6 Gun. Every time I get a board off Gav and Nikki (1-DA) it reignites my passion and froth for surfing again. It’s so much fun in small waves and it goes off in anything overhead. Just a sick board. Nailed it again, so stoked, absolute legends.”

“I got a 5’9” FISH for my birthday and I love it. Before I got my new board, I was struggling to catch waves and turning once I got on them or having enough speed to avoid the break. But after getting my Fish, I’m catching more waves than what I know what to do with! And I’ve got the speed and buoyancy to move around better than ever. I’m so stoked about my new board.”

“Absolutely love my Big J - it gives me the turning ability and extra rocker I need while not sacrificing size and volume. Literally the perfect board for me. Gav is such a legend and luckily he`s my neighbour and even goes to the trouble of watching me surf so he can shape me a better board. Can`t say enough about how amazing 1-DA boards are.”
