Local Shaper Alrik Yull featured at the 2013 Vans US Open of Surfing

Local Shaper Alrik Yull in the spotlight

We’re sure a lot of you are frothing on all the action going down at the US Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach, CA. If you were as glued to the Tube as we were you may have caught the live interview of Alrik Yull on the making of the 2013 Vans US Open of Surfing trophy! The trophy is a bronze sculpture mounted on some reclaimed redwood from Santa Cruz. It is one gorgeous piece of artwork, anyone would be honored to prop it up on the mantel.
