Secret R & D of the BKQ2 Resin-X

This is Top Secret R & D photos being smuggled out of the Hynson/Mattison Lab and testing grounds for the prototype Black Knight Quad 2 - Resin-X!! As you can see, Super Test Pilot, Sean Mattison is putting the BKQ2 through it's paces. Though info is scarce and some spies may have been lost in retrieving this info....the initial results look good! Stay tuned....

The Dr. is IN!

So....my 13 year old son was looking over my blog for the first time and liked the whole Dr. Suess concept, but then gave me a funny look on my author name...Dr. Swells. When I thought of the name, I was thinking swells...as in GroundSWELL; not swells, and in your stick (the other one) swells! I decided he might have a point and I don't want to attract the wrong attention. Thusly, you will see my future posts ending with....Dr. Surfs. It's still Suess-ian and much more direct!

BKQ - First Session!

It's no surprise....THIS BOARD ROCKS and honestly, I didn't even get to really push it that hard.

It was 2-3ft waist to chest for about an hour and then it dropped like a rock with the offshores and outgoing tide to 1-2ft. The BKQ is everything you guys said it would be and the answer to everything I've been looking for in a board! I was catching waves sooooo easily, better than my fish that's a solid 3 inches thick! I love the rails, they react like a Ferrari on a test track! And that tail just whips around like it's on auto-pilot; sure glad I put the tailpad on there.

Sean, you and Hynson have designed the perfect fish...heck, the perfect board! You can count me in for the BKQ II already!

6-4 Hynson XTR Black Knight Quad

I'm super stoked!! I picked up my Black Knight from Micka, the BKQ pimp myself, today!! I was a little freaked out at first when I saw a lot of tiny holes in the board, but Micka explained they were there due to the processing of the XTR. Sean expanded on the process when I had the opportunity to talk to him and Hynson later. I didn't get to ride it, but it's going to have a tail pad, fresh coat of wax, and a lot of love until the next swell arrives! Here are a couple of quick photos....there will definitely be more with better quality and detail! Pray for waves...and anything else you can think of!
