Why you should own a PLONKA!
These boards are just amazing, amazing. Oh, sorry let me rewind a bit.
I first met Kevin Olsen in 2007, he is the shaper who dreamt up the magic board THE PLONKA.
When I first saw the board it was before everyone started to go short and wide, it was about the same time that Kelly was riding the wizards sleeve in comps and I did not like the look of it at all. I thought, hang on, thats not what a surfboard should look like.
Now lets wind forward to todays popular boards or the most common type of board that you see in the water when you go for a surf and there you have it. Plenty of other shapers have jumped on the bandwagon when it was clear that these boards would be popular but I think that the real gems are the boards that helped turn the corner to start with and hey, THE PLONKA, that is one of those.
Have a look at the video and get in contact with Kevin, he knows his stuff and the man has got such a passion for surfboards it is unreal.
He resides in that little known place in the surf world...Hossegor, France . Oh and he can surf pretty good too.
