The philosophy of GP Surfboards is that each board should be as unique as the individuals who ride them. Since all our boards are hand-crafted, the rockers, rails, width, thickness, and etc. can be tailored to match the specifications of each surfer. GP Surfboards came to fruition through a mutual love of surfing and craftsmanship between surfboard shaper, Nick Palandrani, and woodworker, Bruce Gordon.

At the inception of GP surfboards we decided to build our own stringers, bend our own rocker profiles, glue up our own fin lams and shape every board by hand. This is not a new idea; in the begining all surfboards were made this way.  Now by returning to building boards by hand one at a time we give our surfers a board that is personal in appearance and performance.

That is our mission and that is what we do.
