Dean travels to his childhood stomping grounds in York, Maine to meet with Nick and Mike Lavecchia, brothers and co-owners of Grain Surfboards. There, Dean learns the art of wooden board making from the Levecchia brothers. He starts by glueing together planks, shaping the board with a sander, and applying coats to the board to make it glide on the water. Watch to see what Dean creates for his next wave, then apply his woodworking skills to objects that elevate your favorite hobby.
