Born in 1974 , growing up on the beachfront of Tugun located a few kilometers north of world renowned surf breaks Kirra, Greenmount, Snapper Rocks and Duranbah , this is where my connection and obsession with the ocean began. My love for the beach grew along with me and by the time I was 11 years old I was a member of Kirra Surfriders Club and developing my passion and skill as a surfer. The mates

hip and camaraderie through the generations of surfing mentors that I met through the club were my family and provided me with countless life lessons and inspiration to follow my passion for surfing. It was in 1995 when I started my “apprenticeship” in shaping under the DHD label which gave me invaluable skills and experience in high end performance surfboards. First learning the plan shape process (outline) moving onto rough shaping and then progressing into doing full shapes on a full-time basis. In addition to ghost shaping in 1998 I started shaping my own designs signified by the BK SHAPES Grim Reaper logo. This experience further channelled and challenged my knowledge and feel for creating functional equipment. In the year 2000 I travelled to Canada and America to experience life with a couple of boards and a backpack, snowboarding and surfing wherever and whenever i could. After returning home, I was back in the bay, shaping at home in Kirra on the Gold Coast. Producing a quality handmade product is a value I hold close to my heart.

~The Shaping Bay~
A place where "surfboard shapers" spend a third of their life possibly.....if they're fortunate enough.
It's a special place for me as the majority of time is spent alone, and i love that.
Anyone that knows me knows I value a portion of my day alone & in silence.
Immersed totally in your own thoughts and processes which is as close to meditation & being in the moment without the act of meditation.
Nature is the only other place in the world which provides those exact emotions for me.....
Not just surfboards but a collective of energy
I truly believe there is an energy that goes into surfboards.
Part of the " magic " surfboard possibly?
Who knows, but they're definitely a special piece of foam, fibreglass & resin that creates so much joy.
Also a place that can humble you when you least expect it.
