“Moonshine Surfboards is a Yallingup-based surfboard company by Jack Medland. With nothing but hand tools and the finest materials in the wild west, we design and make traditional crafts re-imagined for the modern rider.”
Champion longboarder Jack Medland started making surfboards with Peter Dwyer (Dwyer Surfboards) in a workshop in Osborne Park and a shed at Injidup. Jack laminated, Peter shaped shortboards and Ross Rutherford shaped longboards. Around the same time Jack and Matt Wynn also made approx. twenty boards under the side label Eternal Telephone Surfboards at an Osborne Park workshop.
Then in 2019 Jack and Peter Dwyer founded Moonshine Surfboards and the business moved into a studio with Von Surfboards in Vasse Business Park. Peter has since phased out of the surf business to concentrate on the Landscape/Agriculture market.
Jack has predominately handmade surfboards start to finish until recently when Evan Ledger has helped with the sanding.
