I was at loss of words when I found out that Scott passed away this January. The days before I was sending him some footage of the new board he shaped me and was thinking of something new we could work on for our next project. I know Scott had been battling through Cancer and chemotherapy treatments for almost a decade now but his commitment to what he enjoyed doing was contagious. Scott was a friend, a shaper and a life long San Diegian. His passion for surfboard shaping has brought a lot of stoke to me and many surfers around the world. He was really easy to talk to and bring up new ideas to his office. His words have sunk into my life “do what you want to in life”. I hope you are deep into your dreams, Thanks Scott for your friendship.

I just got a hold of one of his surfboards, that he must’ve shaped 10 years ago, his signature on the back (ezera 6′ 3-fin fish).
He was ahead of his time, the shape of the surfboard is the best I’ve seen. He’s still bringing people happiness every time his creation touches a wave here in the Pacific Northwest.
