HISTORY & ORIGIN

Ryan Burch is a surfer-shaper from North County San Diego who became well known for his experimental surfboard designs and highly respected free-surfing career. He grew up surfing from early childhood and by his teen years he was already riding a variety of boards, including wooden alaias, rectangular foam blocks, and experimenting with other non-traditional shapes. After picking up shaping, over time and through the influence of folks like Carl Ekstrom, he developed a signature approach and began on his asymmetrical surfboard journey which has become a staple element in his career. Burch’s board designs span across fishes, shortboards, quads, gliders, and old-school twin-keels, and he is still building them all by hand. Over the years this experimental, DIY ethos as well as his uncanny surfing ability has made him a leading figure in the alternative surfboard realm.
