Bob started Arrow Surf Products in 1969. Under his dedicated supervision Arrow has grown to be one of the top international producers of surfboards, servicing customers from Japan, Europe, Australia, North and South America. There isn't a surfing community in the world that hasn't experienced Bob and Arrow's positive influence.
As a surfer, Bob competed internationally for the past 30+ years ranking as high as number 2 on the international Pro Circuit. This extreme desire to excel at surfing has opened a world of experimental boards and fins in the quest for the ultimate ride. Through these systematical experiments Bob was able to break the art of surfing down to its fundamental concepts. One of these days I'll convince him to write the definitive Book on Surfboard Theory. But until then you can benefit from his intense knowledge of the subject just by sitting in on one of his many daily shaping appointments.
There isn't an owner in the industry that will devote more individual attention to each customer; ask any of his customers. Bob's strategy for success with Arrow is founded in the intimate knowledge of every customer's desire. This takes his shaping appointments beyond the realm of simple questions like "what dimensions do you want", instead of revolving around the customer's knowledge (and often re-education) of his or her own product. Arrow can best serve you if you know what you want. As Bob likes to say, "if you ask a million different people, you'll get a million different answers". What he offers is a logical explanation of board chacteristics, so offten confused by media influence.
Bob and Arrow offers a chance for every surfer to experiment with his or her product. this means no more "shaper interpretations" of your wants. After spending time talking to Bob, you will know what you want, and more importantly you'll know how to ask for it. This is the Arrow way.
