Rob Machado’s Latest Fish Experiment!

/ Channel Islands Experiments, Rob Machado

“Challenging different fun keeps a smile on my face interesting,” Rob had to say about the board. “I’ve been calling it ‘board eat board’. My fish got hungry and ate my round tail and my alaia. I think it’s 5’4 x 19″ x 1 3/4″”

What do you even call this? Really.

This is Rob Machado’s latest creation. In a sense, it’s a board within a board. There’s an array of theories at work here! We see a fish tail but wait, a 7’0″ pin sticking out and his short board nose hidden within a spoon front. We will give you the low down from Rob real soon as he just test drove this board on his last trip to Chile. We may also see him ride it in his clash of the icons heat today!

Would ride something like this?
