Boardmasters Trophy Design

COMMISIONED TROPHY FOR BOARDMASTERS 2017.

This year as part of my Creative role at Boardmasters Festival,  I was lucky enough to put my friends at Lignum Surf forward to design the winners trophies for the WSL QS1,000 Boardmasters, Quiksilver & Roxy Opens and the Jeep Longboard Competition. The aim was to design a trophy that rang true to the roots of Boardmasters, connecting with the local surf community and supporting the ethos of sustainable design that uses less waste and more organic natural products.

HAND SHAPED, LOCALY SOURCED & WASTE FREE

The boys did us proud and their trophy design won the tender with a hand shaped design made out of locally sourced wood that contained a custom stringer as with any traditional surfboard. The natural form and waste free design not only appealed to the ethos of Boardmasters with their ongoing support of Surfers Against Sewage, but served as a beautiful piece for the winners. .

The Lignum Workshop where the magic happens

When the boys aren't hand shaping trophies they are hidden away shaping beautiful wooden surf boards and running the occasional workshops if you are lucky enough to bag yourself a spot. For more information you can visit them here
