6'8" Alex Knost BMT Bonzer face

6'8" Alex Knost BMT Bonzer faceBetween recording albums, touring, going on surf trips, and running the Costa Mesa Conceptual Art Center, Costa Mesa's Alex Knost manages to squeeze in some time to shape some select sleds. New from BMT this sled is a combination of a couple different design ideas we've been seeing from Alex lately. This bonzer egg is very shreddy feeling with soflty foiled rails and a rolled bottom that transitions into smooth bonzer concave running through the fins.

and running up to meet the slope of the nose rocker which has a little more flip in the nose than your average Liddle displacement hull normally has

The bottom contours are strictly convex with a gentle roll throughout the length of the board

Today we see more surfers

This one off model is reminiscent of the square nose boards Herbie Fletcher was shaping back in the day

The bottom contour is rolled in the nose then transitions to rolled vee with a hint of spiral vee out the tail

and turn down towards the tail with a sharp trailing edge that starts several inches above the fin

These boards are thin but have somewhat of a boxy rail foil in comparison to Kegel's knifey blades he's know for

This is a placeholder image as the real board is being boxed up at the glass shop for transit
