Chris Bugge, born in Norway, skateboarded since his feet first touched the ground. After many hospital visits and operations he decided to swap the wood for foam and fiberglass.
Falling in love with surfing from the get go he decided to shape his first board pretty early on. After a short time he was already building boards for friends as well as himself.
A chance meeting at the Alley Fish Fry in Crackington haven in 2011 landed him a job with Lost in California (San Clemente) where he spent three years perfecting his craft and working and learning for many different people including; ghetto house glassing, terry senate surfboards, Bashams factory as well as Lost and has been a part of building boards for many others including Glide Surfboards in Ireland.
Now based in Bristol (UK), he has brought his knowledge with him and is mowing out custom boards and doing repairs / restorations for people all over the UK.
