The Big Circus Flying Pig is a performance work of art created to be featured in the UK TV series, Matt Baker’s Travels in the Country: USA. The show is produced by Matt's production company, Big Circus Media. UK viewers (or those with VPN's configured for the UK) can stream Episode 6 featuring Ventana and this board here.

We incorporated black walnut and poplar on the bottom deck and the fin. These beautifully grained pieces are offcuts from the creation of a previous surfboard. On this side, we've included abalone and mother of pearl inlay above the tail.

Matt Baker and Martijn Stiphout

The mother of pearl is surrounded by ebony, and both come from an offcut provided to us by Santa Cruz Guitar Company.

The top deck is made from redwood red wine tanks from the 1950s that were salvaged from the old Martini & Prati Winery and came to us by way of Mission Bell Manufacturing. Above the tail on this side, we've included a slice of colored Entropy Resins epoxy that was salvaged from the floor of the Locus Surfboards shop. This resin dripped off boards glassed there by talented shaper Tyler Hopkins for Locus and for Ashley Lloyd Surfboards.

REpercussion DrumsThe tail block, vent plug, and leash plug are made of oak that was recovered from a bog in Cambridge Fens, England. It has been carbon dated at approximately 5000-years-old. This storied wood was donated to us by REpercussion Drums in Glastonbury Tors, England. The leash plug has a small abalone inlay under the leash bar.

The rails are made of cork, and it is glassed with Entropy Super Sap Bio Resin and 4oz. fiberglass cloth (two layers on top and one on bottom) from Aerialite Surf. As with all Ventana boards, the interior is glassed and sealed, as well.

Made in Santa Cruz, California by master artisan Martijn Stiphout.

Dimensions: 7’0” x 21" x 2.5"

Weight: 16 pounds

Volume: 45 liters

As with all Ventana surfboards, this one includes a board bag made of reclaimed coffee sacks and other materials by Sagebrush Board Bags.

Each board comes with a special edition of our standard Save-a-Surf Wax Box. This version includes two vent plug screws for the Ventana board!
