Spotlight on Rodolfo Lagunas. This is the man. These are the hands.
Rodolfo is our chief glasser at Victoria and has been so for 14 years straight. He can feel the resin content of a board in his hands and pull exactly the right amount out to make the strongest possible board, with the minimum amount of resin. The perfect blend of strength and weight. This is the artists touch, literally. If this was Japan, he would be a national treasure, sponsored and supported by the nation, and highly valued by his customers. He is one big reason Victoria has maintained it’s reputation as the maker of the best boards on the planet. Like the finest of culinary chefs, he can handle multiple different resin systems, a dozen different pigment effects, and balance these against 20 degree fluxuations in temperature that can drastically effect the curing rates. We here at Victoria salute you Rodolfo. Thank you so much for all the pleasure you have brought all our customers all these long years. Tex and the Vic Crew
