This fish-shaped, performance handplane made features a subtle fish scales on top and anchovies with jellies on bottom. These were created using pigments by Black Diamond Pigments. The material is balsa given to us by Tony Graziano Ukuleles. It's incredibly lightweight (~225 grams!), and our fiber glassing ensures that it's strong and ready for the waves.

It's glassed EcoPoxy bio-resin which is non-toxic and is made using a soy base.

The hand strap (coming shortly) is nylon and adjustable. It is covered with offcuts from SisstrEvolution wetsuit production, and the plane is shaped with our unique, ergonomic hand fit. The hardware is solid brass. As with all Ventana handplanes, this one floats so you can easily pass it between friends in the waves.

It comes with a free cinch sack made from flannel lined remnant fabric.

You only need a single handplane on your leading arm for a great ride every time! This is a terrific conversation piece in your home and will slice you across the face of any sized waves.

Handmade in Santa Cruz, California and designed by master craftsman Martijn Stiphout

Spectacular!!!!

I’m not one to leave reviews but Martijn has outdone himself!!! The artwork on this hand plane is nothing less than extraordinary, bringing performance functionality and art onto the same level as a Porsche 911 or Ford Shelby!!! I’m a huge fan of such functional art and look forward to teaching my daughter how to body surf with this a few years from now (once she’s learned how to walk and swim😂😂🤣). Thanks Ventana for your artistic expression!!!

So excited that you love it! Thank you for being one of our best and most appreciative customers over the years
