Tonight in Brooklyn, the second “Stab In The Dark” experiment premieres. This year features Dane Reynolds on a blind surf test of 13 unsigned, unbranded boards. Here’s how it works: The best shapers in the world shape the best craft they can for a secret pro surfer of specified height and weight. Neither the shaper nor the surfer know who the other is and the board is to be delivered completely white and free of markings/branding. This year’s mystery surfer was Dane Reynolds and he took all 13 surfboards on blind date in South Africa for 10 days. The film will screen at 8.30pm and the winner announced shortly after. It should be quite a good time. Food and refreshments are provided and Stab will be giving away some of the boards Dane rode as well. Oh, and everyone also receives a crudely-designed Dane Reynolds tee and tote bag, too. RSVP here.
