Description: The Butch Van Artsdalen model longboard by legendary shaper Bill Shrosbree has proven itself over the last forty years to be his best all around longboard design. Shros has been shaping longboards since 1965 and has worked in some of the most famous shaping rooms in the world to include Velzy, Greg Noll, Gordon and Smith and Sunset Surfboards.  If you want a board with classic longboard styling, surface glide and forgiving rails for turning this board will meet all of your expectations. This shape is also an excellent nose rider.  The Butch Van Artsdalen longboard model was created as a tribute to the legendary big wave surfer who Shros would see as a young boy in Pacific City where he lives.  Shros always admired Butch and decided to shape and design a surfboard as a tribute to this surfing legend who was known for tackling Pipeline, Sunset and Waimea Bay in the 60’s and 70’s.
