Pat Rawson Surfboards

Legendary North Shore shaper active since 1966, known as the "godfather of the Gun" for modern big-wave gun design in the early 1980s. Manufacturing on the North Shore since 1972 from his home base near Sunset Beach. Has shaped customs for Tom Carroll, Mark Richards, and Tom Curren; boards distributed to 19 countries. A community directory listing states customs and repairs are available by direct arrangement -- not independently confirmed by the official site, which is shaping/manufacturing-focused and doesn't itemize repair services.
