The fin is one solid piece of steel that was made to the actual shape of a real fin.Ī self-taught artist, Derek McDonald was born in Orange County, California where he began to explore his artistic side at a very young age. The stringer and fin presents the collaboration with artist Chris Harsh who not only painted the incredible colors, but also clear coated the entire piece to give it that “wet” look. Interior bolts accentuate the board with a flowing style as the board sits atop a 25” diamond-bit saw blade. The board was constructed using 475 recycled long spool bolts creating a realistic dimensioned longboard. The design was used on the original Paddle Hard No. As with many of Derek’s art, it is given an industrial feel with polished refinement.
