For those unfamiliar with Glenn Pang's work, he's been a Town and Country mainstay since the early '80s and has worked with surfing legends for decades, from Martin Potter and Marvin Foster to Billy Kemper and Kekoa Bacalso . Many of today's top professional surfers, such as Kanoa Igarashi and Frederico Morais, who come to Hawaii to compete in the winter, also look to Pang's expertise. As an avid surfer, the process of finding the next great board begins beneath one's feet. “I would never ride the same boards as the team. I was always doing the next plank. Once I found something that worked well for me, I would give it to the team and say, “try this, let me know what you think,” make changes, and refine it. from there. Pang continues: “For me, that’s one of the best parts of the job: trying something that you created and designed. The other great thing is that when surfers do well on your boards or win a competition on your boards, that's also hard to beat.

Glenn shares his knowledge through a number of videos that will help you choose your board and understand how your board works.
