&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;The Poerava Standard Shorty, great all around board. This is a 6'0" x 18 1/2" x 2 3/8" swallow &lt;br /&gt;
tail and has a deep single concave starting from the middle of the board through the tail.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img alt="" src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/3/5/3/4/8/195131-184353/runge_at_lowers_2.png?a=35" style="border: 0px solid;" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;The tail is also a bit wider and thicker which allows you to keep the speed flowing through the &lt;br /&gt;
slower sections or to get around Herbie Fletcher when he decides to tandem with you.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;img alt="" style="border-width: 0px; border-style: solid;" src="http://blog.poerava.net/emoticons/smile.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;It is available with just the sanded finish but is deluxe with the resin tint, gloss and polish.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;All of Poerava's jewelry is fabricated, not cast and starts here at the bench in our San Clemente&lt;br /&gt;
office. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img alt="" src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/3/5/3/4/8/195131-184353/poerava_jewelry_2.png?a=96" style="border: 0px solid;" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After pounding and twisting the sawing begins.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img alt="" src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/3/5/3/4/8/195131-184353/poerava_jewelry_3.png?a=84" style="border: 0px solid;" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sodering process, just like welding. Chieko also loves to use this torch while cooking!&lt;br /&gt;
Creme Brulee anyone. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img alt="" src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/3/5/3/4/8/195131-184353/poerava_jewelry_4.png?a=44" style="border: 0px solid;" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After all is cooked, ready for polish.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img alt="" src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/3/5/3/4/8/195131-184353/poerava_jewelry_5.png?a=68" style="border: 0px solid;" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Polishing really shows off the pounding and imperfections, keeping the one-of-kind concept&lt;br /&gt;
roll'n.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
