Quick show summary…
Pat Rawson discusses with host Ryan Riccitelli his background growing up surfing in California where he began shaping surfboards in 1966. His migration to Oahu’s Northshore in 1972, soon became his home and where he built his name and business with a strong reputation for being the big wave gun man of choice.

Pat and Ryan discuss the evolution of surf shapes over the past 40 years, from single fin classics, to working on some of the first thrusters and how Pat applies that knowledge to creating the shapes he does today as we move into a world of quad fin and 3-4-5 convertible set ups. We learn of the high technology used in modern surfboard shaping, which allows Pat to hand shape boards and then use special 3D modeling to create computer files which his shaping machines can read from the computer and recreate the shape within 1/1000 of an inch. This process allows Pat to really refine shapes over time due to the reliability of being able to recreate the exact shape.

Pat describes his relationship with LF Team Rider Mauricio Abreu and how Mauricio’s style of riding led him to be riding Rawson Surfboards strapless and how that was what brought Pat back into shaping for kiteboarding. Over the past 5 years Pat and Mauricio, along with other well known kiteboarding pro riders, such as Elliot Leboe and Andre Phillip and LF Team Riders Moehau Goold, Jason Slezak and Davey Blair have been riding Rawson Surfboards, with constant feedback and refinement. This history and the relationships with the riders allowed Liquid Force and Pat Rawson to come together to produce a premium line of kite surfboards that have been relentlessly tested and refined for years. The master’s shapes blended with the production capability and worldwide distribution network will allow for the fist time, Rawson Custom Kite Surfboards, previously only available to a small circle of kiteboarding elite… now available worldwide as the Liquid Force Project Rawson Skate and Quas series, at Liquid Force retailers!

Pat goes on to speak about why he uses Futures Fins on all of his and the Liquid Force Surfboards and how rail and bottom shapes have evolved to create the latest shapes for Liquid Force, inlcuding 2 thrusters, in a 5′10 and 6′1 and 2 bat tail quads in 5′11 and 6′2.
