Surfriding "A New Beginning" How Mark Gomez's Freeride Boat was built

[Mark Gomez]

Hey guys,
It's been a long time coming since I finished my new (painted) ski. I've been really busy traveling from event to event and all the non sense like working to make a living in between.
I just finished a write up on how my Blue and Silver Freeride ski came together by all the sponsors and friends who helped me make it happen.
I plan to have my website completely up to date by the end of the week. This blog post was a big first step in getting things off the ground for that.
The post has details on most parts I used, how the paint job happened, how I turfed the ski, and some other steps involved in finishing the ski.



So if your interested in how it all came together this year follow that link bellow.

Thank you guys do me a favor and check out my sponsors websites if you haven't recently and see if there is anything that worked for me can work for you guys. Those guys really made it happen for me they deserve some good business.
Thanks again everyone

Mark has certainly paid his dues! As far as his ski, I've always loved the colors on that thing! One of the best paint jobs around!

Great write up Mark! I remember when you busted your boat out with the new paint job at Pismo in March. It was a big hit with everybody and after riding a few thousand waves and barrel rolls and backflips and re-entries and races it still looks BAD AZZ!!

 

[Mark Gomez]

Thank you guys I really appreciate the compliments this ski has done really well for me and still is. Its just time now to move forward while this bad boy is in good shape. Check out my Signature and see if any of you would like a rippen Freeride set up!

Did you make any mod to mount that GoPro camera? I noticed your vids have a great POV angle but wondered if you drilled the hull or something
