"For the Fish, I guess what I want is to take the best elements from the traditional keel fin fish that has been around for ever and bastardised by every shaper in the world and put our own take on it, improve it 's usability in not so great daily waves, make it a little more friendly for pushing harder in turns, better off and in the lip than the traditional keel fin fish, while not taking away from the speed, trim and down the line characteristic of the fish that make them so special. A more modern shortboard rail blended to a reasonably flat deck, low but just enough rocker, a single concave to slight vee double out the back from the fins, a slight hip or bump in the rail at the trailing edge of the fins to bring in the width of the swallow and allow it to release more for tighter top turns etc. Nothing to drastic just the right mix of subtle curves."
Specter Designs - created by Tanner Boyes, artist, designer and craftsman hailing from San Clemente California - finds its focus in metal-craft, body work, car design, and customisation.
A full circle moment, the longstanding creative partnership between Specter Design and Deus Ex Machina culminates in a limited edition capsule range - an ode to both brands’ deep appreciation for craftsmanship and design principles that extend beyond the bounds of any one discipline or practice.
Some bikes offer more than just speed—they bring style, heritage, and a touch of Mediterranean, even in the dead of winter. For those who appreciate life in the slow(er) lane, a Bel-Air style, nipped, tucked, and rolled custom Vespa 300 SuperSport is the perfect way to get by.
