Where it all began... It was1968 and my Dad would load up the '64 Chevy Chevlle Station Wagon every weekend and drag us down to Sandy Hook, a true right handed point break. We surfed til we dropped. Later on in life during one of my ego driven rants, I screamed at him "What did you ever do for us"? He calmly replied "I gave you surfing". I was immediately silenced and very much humbled. Of course, he was right and that moment changed my life forever. My parents, Alfred and June, passed 6 weeks apart in 2009. My wife Trish urged me to start New Life Surfboards in early 2010. Oh, one other cool thing, our Wedding Day is 6-2-07, look closley at the logo.

AND NOW.....
We build handcrafted “old school” surf boards, created one at a time. Long boards, single fins and fishes.
If you are a seasoned surfer and desire a board designed for your specific needs, we’ll build it.
If you are a novice and want to improve your ability, we’ll build the right board and provide instruction.
If you’ve never surfed but wish to improve your quality of life, we will help you realize this goal by educating you on surf history, building you a board and providing instruction.
After that, it’s up to you to enjoy the stoke.
Surfing will change your life !!!!
