Birds Surf Shed Presents: Birds Secret Stash

In this new series called “Birds Secret Stash” Bird shows us a classic Town and Country Twin fin that found its way into the Shed this past month but sometimes boards aren’t meant to be sold. Theres one true cornerstone of “The Shed” and thats if someone finds an old board of theirs in the stash, they can have it back.

Well this one shaped by Dennis Pang in the mid 1970’s is one of those boards that needed to return to Oahu to the sacred halls of Town and Country.

Stay tuned for Part 2 coming soon.

From The Vault: Bird Huffman Interview 2013

From Episode 39 http://www.korduroy.tv

For those who know him, Bird Huffman has become synonymous with surf culture and the surfboard in San Diego. Growing up on the beaches of La Jolla, Pacific Beach, and Sunset Cliffs, Bird’s knowledge and connections to the legends in the southern San Diego area like Skip Frye, Steve Lis, Bill Caster, and more are undeniable. He has also amassed one of the most incredible collections of surfboards, which hang from the rafters at his surf shop “Bird’s Surf Shed.”

Each board has it’s own unique story behind it, which Bird will happily share with you as you stare in awe at the various pieces of our sport’s history. Also, as host of 91X Authentic Surf Report, you may recognize Bird’s voice as he shares what he feels is a surf report similar to what one of your buddies would share with you, rather than an embellished, over-promising report that we so often receive from various other surf reports. In this episode of Innerviews, Bird candidly shares what it was like growing up in southern San Diego, and how he views the state of surfing right now. https://birdssurfshed.com/
