Mike Walker
Mike started shaping in 1996 and has already shaped thousands of boards under labels like Rusty, Sharp Eye, Xanadu, G & S, Kane Garden, Lightning Bolt, Rossin, Hynson, and his own label, Walker. For his every pass of his planner he is focused on one thing…To offer the most versatile line of high quality surfboards. Five years ago he was contacted by wake surfers to design boards specifically for this emerging sport. Over this time he has expanded his surfboard line to include a wide array of wake surfing boards and after an incredible amount of research and design is considered to be among the highest echelon of board designers. In 2007 Mike was a judge at the wake surfing Worlds.
"I have been fortunate enough to have shaped for some of the world’s most respected labels. I’ve used this past experience and have incorporated these vast design concepts into boards designed to meet the needs of surfers on all skill levels. Designs come and go like the tides. Amongst all the hype and cool ad campaigns, it can be hard to figure out what will work best for you and your surfing. Search your heart. Ask your friends…whatever it takes. Just make sure you are riding what you want and not what you were sold on. Remember….surfing comes first!"
