Labor of Love
Client - Type7 by Porsche
Talent - Forrest Minchinton
Location - Costa Rica
Forrest was taught the trade of shaping, glassing, and coloring surfboards by his father and hall of fame shaper, Mike Minchinton, who himself had been shown the traditional way of board shaping by surf legend Robert August (some might know this name from the iconic surf film, "The Endless Summer"). Forrest had the opportunity to be a young apprentice and shop hand to his father and August to make an extra buck to keep his dirt bike running.
