Title

Robbie Dick shaped this surfboard for Miki Dora

Description

Robbie Dick shaped this "Da Cat"-model, "Super Tanker" surfboard for Miki Dora at the Natural Progression surf shop in Malibu in 1985.

It's 8'10" long and has a square tail. The signature on the foam says, "85 583 R. Dick for M. S. Dora XXV."

The purple color on the bottom wraps up onto the rails, and there is a blue-gray swirl across the deck.

Dean Edwards created the logo after an idea by Miki Dora. It shows a black cat on fire, being chased off an atomic planet Earth by rats.
