Danny Hess

Danny Hess:
San Francisco surfboard maker Danny Hess (Kresge, art, '98) has merged his passions for woodworking and surfing.

By synthesizing the woodworking techniques of cabinetmakers and boat builders with the standard foam-and-fiberglass approach of surfboard construction, Hess creates surfboards that push the boundaries of environmental sustainability, aesthetic beauty, and speed generation--and he's making a "decent living."
