After nearly ten years riding DHD's, Asher Pacey is soon to be parting ways.

"It’s with the absolute upmost appreciation and gratitude that I’ve had the opportunity to work with one of the best shapers in the world," wrote Asher in a lengthy Instagram post.

Any shaper who's included a short, stubby twin in their range should give a nod of the head to Pacey for bringing them back into fashion. During his time with DHD, Pacey launched the Mini Twin and Mini Twin II, boards that gave him, "the best surfing years in my life to date".

No word yet about who's making his new boards, but he's just uploaded a fitting send off: throwing jazz-inflected moves while sliding Snapper on a DHD twin.
