JS Industries (Tractor Boards), with Jason talking about how he uses the software and the APS3000 machine.


David Tortelier in Tahiti, doing an video interview about his APS3000 machine.
Recently we did an interview with Cadalyst (Computer Aided Design Magazine) magazine which gives a brief over of the APS3000 system and talks about the interesting stuff going on with Peter "Chops" Lascelles and an APS3000 in Newquay, UK.


Also, a related article about what Chops is doing in the Conwall Pure Business Magazine.

A couple of interesting articles in reference to our system. Check out Muzza's Tripping on the right of his main page. www.pipedreamsurfboards.com

An article about his turnaround towards to computer design and machine shaping.
A couple of quotes from Muzza:

"Brooko's (Troy Brooks WCT Surfer) telling me that my success rate with his boards has more than doubled and Munro (Luke Munro WQS) says the same."
...
"To fully answer the line of thought that shaping machines are a removal of skill I have to say that it is the time and thought that goes into designing your board must be energy better spent than time in the bay."
...
"In concluding I hope that this explanation to pacify the sceptics of my final acceptance of the embracing of this new technology is not to save dollars but to move forward in giving my clientele the benefit of more modern, accurate and customized designs than ever before."
