What's a Quiver?

Today’s communication tools make surfboards designs travel at a speed of light spreading seeds around the world, inspiring shapers and making surfers mindful of the different options out there.

Batches of boards with increments of inches are part of the past. The definition of quiver is getting different interpretations; surfers are reinventing the concept of what is a quiver. Choosing boards by the design and way they approach waves.

The fact is that this "Fun"ctiontal Quivers are making us happier, having a blast in every session.

Hydrodynamica is an independent film project (currently in progress) in a documentary format that explores surfing culture and the legacy of surfers since 1940s to the present.

I truly consider myself as a privileged for the skin-to-skin contact with this rare piece. Thumbs up for my buddies at the corner shop!
