About Craig

Craig started shaping surfboards in 1993. In 1995, he worked and was mentored by master surfer/shaper Ben Aipa and his son Akila. He was fortunate to fine tune his shaping and design skills while working with Ben.

One of the most important lessons he learned from Ben was to "embrace the process". "The better you do the first step, the easier the second step will be (and so forth)... no shortcuts!" Ben always told Craig. He always reminded Craig that you had to "work on your weaknesses until they become your strengths."

Craig continued his shaping with Ben for a few years until starting his own personal brand called CK Surfboards. Those years with Ben were some the best years of his shaping career. To this day, he applies the lessons he learned from Ben into his own shaping.
