In today's episode of the Quivercast, we sit down with renowned surfboard shaper Ryan Lovelace @ryanlovelace. Based out of his factory in Carpinteria, California, Ryan has carved a niche for himself in the world of hand-shaped surfboards. Moving to Santa Barbara as a young man, Ryan quickly discovered his passion for shaping, diving deep into the craft and creating unique boards that reflect his own creative approach. Unlike the conventional thruster designs, Ryan experimented with alternative shapes, catering to both his own surfing style and the needs of the local Santa Barbara surf community.

Today, Ryan’s surfboard shaping business is flourishing, with surfers around the globe seeking out his distinct designs. Known for his dedication to handcrafting each board, Ryan’s work stands out in a world of mass-produced surfboards. In this episode, we explore his journey from a curious young shaper to a globally recognized artist in the surf industry, and we get a glimpse into what inspires his one-of-a-kind creations. Tune in to hear about the evolution of his shaping style, and the art of surfboard design.
