In Bali’s growing surf scene, Eko from Eight’oo Surfboards stands out for his creativity and dedication to the craft. Known for shaping boards that combine performance and soul, Eko continues to push boundaries while keeping the essence of hand-shaped surf culture alive.

For Earth Island Surf Fest 2025, he built something truly unique an asymmetrical surfboard designed to match the flow and energy of Canggu’s waves. The design reflects his belief that every board has its own rhythm, just like every surfer and every wave.

Through Shapers Story, we celebrate Eko’s journey and his passion for shaping a reminder that true craftsmanship comes from understanding the ocean, the ride, and the art of making something by hand.
