Custom Surfboard

 This is my new custom 7 foot Tri-Fin or quad board with a sunburst custom paint.  The crazy extras that my buddy, Jon Lalanne did are over the top!  To make this a one-of-a-kind he laid in real diamonds at the ends of the crosses, and the T.W. initials are real gold.

Jon is a board shaper, and a good friend of mine from Malibu.  He now lives in Hawaii and makes some sick and innovative boards.  His company is LaLa Surfboards.  You have to check them out at http://www.lalasurfboards.com/

Yesterday I had Jack Rudy and Tom Foster stop in the shop. If you don't know who Jack Rudy is- He's the top in his biz of black and grey tattoos. He's one cool dude and one skilled mother fucker. His art work is recognized around the world. Check out his work on google images, or contact him at Good Time Charlies TattooLand in Anaheim, CA.

Tom Foster is also at the top of his game in custom bike building and custom cars. He is one skilled engineer to add to his resume. He has been featured in countless magazines. http://www.crazyfastcracker.com/

They are both immersed in the car culture. I was honored when they asked me to make them a ring for the 20th Anniversary of their car club, the Beatniks. There is nothing like an old school Hot Rod.

Keep it low and WFO...

One Badass trench.



I want to give a shout out to my buddy, Jeb Corliss. He just cheated death on his last flight suit attempt. Check him out: http://www.youtube.com/jebcorliss http://jebcorliss.net

I made this trench coat for him a while back, and I wanted to show it off. Hope for a speedy recovery.

FXR Project



I just had Trevelen stop by the shop. I dont know if you've seen his rides, but he does some cool shit. I love his bikes. His company is SuperCo www.sccla.com. We are working on some cool leathers for him, and he's making me a set of Z bars for my FXR - along with some other goods. I'm revamping my FXR and the build will start soon. I will post as the build begins....Keeping it old school.

Michael Madsen "Hell Ride" Bike






On Friday I did a photo shoot w/ my buddy, Michael Madsen. It was for ROOTS Magazine. They were doing a story on his day and life, what makes him tick, and what he lives for. Michael has a great attitude about life and living it. He is not just a bad ass, but he is a dedicated family man and brother. You can check out his recent film "Hell Ride" or the classic "Reservoir Dogs". You can even pick up his new book; "American Bad Ass". The bike in the photos is what he rode in his recent movie "Hell Ride".

The bike was built by Justin at Glory Motor Works in Los Angeles. It was clean and cool. They ran a S.S. Shovel engine and a Flyrite Chassis, along with custom touches. Paint by Scott Craig - don't quote me on this stuff but you can contact Justin at www.glorysales.com and ask him to build you something.

Thanks for Looking,

TW
Keep it W.F.O.

USS John Paul Jones

Yesterday I got a special tour of the USS JOHN PAUL JONES. It was anchored off Malibu pier It was a honor to board this vessel. I think very highly of our armed forces and can't thank the Men and woman in them enough for defending our freedom. Be a supporter and at least fly a flag or send a letter to the troops. Thank you DDG 53 "IN HARM'S WAY"
Flag at the bow.
Here I am taking a few shots off the side at a pod of Dolphins..just kidding.. As you can see Point Dume in the back ground. Sorry for the blurry shot, but that is what happens when you give your camera to a stranger.
This is a view off the back looking at the Malibu pier a sheriff patrol and a armed zodiac doing the rounds.



This is the command center for defense where they fire the big guns and the Tomahawk missiles. As you can see the GPS reading of the ship off the Malibu coast. I thought this was super cool.
