Tim Stafford Surfboards

Mostly bonzer inspired creations, made in Cornwall. Designed, shaped, glassed, sanded, finned and finished by Tim Stafford.

I make boards that are easy to ride, that feel natural under foot. Most aren't conventional but they will help you reach that point where you stop thinking about what's under your feet and start to focus on where you want to go and how you want to get there. Why bonzers?

Always happy to chat about your needs and what would work for you but please initiate contact by email or Facebook... details on www.timstaffordsurfboards.com | Ride and glide.

FreakFish calling Daz…

Its nearly fully sanded and then comes back for pinlines and artwork… the big decision, speed coat and get it in the water straight away or gloss and polish and wait at least another week… Hmmmm

This one will also be on demo so email if you want to try it out.

Demo blunt diamond…

Was surfing a great little break I call “Scalps” this morning, lovely right reef (don’t ask where) with a few friendly compadres… and one asked about the blunt diamond demo – so if you happen to be reading this post… here’s a pic. It’s just waiting for Daz to polish it. 6’8” x 21 1/8” x 2 5/8” It has a wide tail but foiled through so its easy to bury the rail and the double concave bonzer bottom keeps it really lively and fast. The fin set up is EVO3 with American Hardwood fins by yours truly. resin tint on the bottom. 6oz + 4oz deck with a 6oz bottom with a 4oz fin patch. This one was glassed by Jason. It also has a Go-Pro camera mount on the nose…

Baby bonzer fins

P1040269 P1040272

Seren’s board gets a step closer – having just tacked on her baby bonzer fins that I foiled out of American Ash… they will get glassed and hot coated on on Monday and the rear fin will probably be an FCS plug based Protect fin to start with and then a larger custom FCS EVO fin that I will make when the time comes…

Seren’s bonzer EVO3 gets some tint… I glassed this as a double 4 oz on the deck and 4 + 4oz patch on the bottom. Mixed up the lime green with 1 part translucent blue to 4 parts translucent amber.

EVO 3 bonzer fix

Lucas’s EVO3 Blunt diamond was fixed and looks just as good as the day it was finished. Sadly he lost the fin on impact so not only did I have to redo all the artwork around the fin area but also had to make a new fin. Daz did an excellent job on the sanding/gloss and polish. Cheers.
