Matt Wilkerson hand-shapes and glasses all his boards himself, and has some pedigree as a surfboard builder, via California, Hawaii and now Noosa.
Short version: Started young with Rusty in San Diego “where I worked with some incredible craftsmen” and was particularly inspired by Pat Rawson and
his techniques and theories. “Working with Donald Takayama was one of the high points of my life and I’ve never looked at surfboards the same. I lived
on the North Shore, made longboards and short for locals and legends, but it was never about the money, it was about the waves. I moved west to Makaha
and the community, the history, and the waves there showed me a whole new life. And that’s where my own label grew.
“I met my wife, who’s an Aussie, and moved to Sydney where I worked with Bennetts and Channel Islands, while producing my own boards. We fell in love
with the Sunshine Coast, and I worked out of Beach Beat for a couple of years until going back to what I love best - making my own boards from start
to finish. I prefer that entirely manual process as it gives you a much better connection and feel for the board.”
The Mojo From 9’2” to 10’0”, with a wide parallel outline for maximum trim and stability, single nose concave, rolled vee bottom, 50/50 classic rails,
balanced rocker, 10” hatchet fin, full resin tint, and heavy traditional 7.5oz Volan glass to ensure the smoothest ride possible.
And one of you PLB subscribers is going to own one by next issue!
