About the Author

Bob Smith (aka Mr X) is a surfing pen name for Bob Imhoff. Bob's years of R&D at Pipeline and other surf areas in Hawaii, led to his writing The Basics of Surfboard Design. When Bob was not researching the innards of Pipeline, he was searching througout space for the perfect wave. The results of his search are documented in Bob Smith's 27th Dream (available on Kindle). Bob primarily considers himself to be an inventor and has 2 US patents. He prototyped an Unbreakable, High-Performance, Surfboard-in-a-Suitcase and is continuing research on an exotic high-speed sailboat. He writes two blogs: High-Speed Sailing, and: Bob Smith Surfs.
