Garage Handplanes was a result of need. Since his childhood, Garage author, David Archer, has had an immense affection for the ocean. His first handplane was a Christmas present from his grandma back in the last part of the 1970s, he was promptly spellbound by the crude intensity of the sea and the impression of coasting like a dolphin in outright synchronicity with the wave.

Grommets grow up, beneficial things never last and, while David’s energy for bodysurfing just reinforced, his trusty old handplane gradually crumbled. Anxious to supplant his wellspring of so much bliss and discovering nothing in the commercial center, he started upcycling broken surfboards, repurposing the froth centers and forming and glassing handplanes of his own vision.

Numerous hours spent incrusted in froth and dabbling with plan shapes and structure plans, David hit upon the ideal recipe, a marriage of structure and capacity that gave ideal lift to bring him into the wave and predominant hold somewhere down in the barrel.

At Garage Handplanes they think being inside a wave is simply the best spot to get lost in the grandness of nature. In the riding scene – where sheets rule – body riding genuinely is the alternative to the alternative.
