Veta
One line down the blank decides the whole board.
Veta translates a one-person Oaxacan surfboard shaping bay into a commission system where rider, wave, geometry, and material remain visibly connected to the maker’s hand.
The premise
Configuration should reveal craft, not impersonate it.
Rider, wave, and style inputs change outline, rocker, fins, volume, and glassing together so every choice exposes a real consequence.
The interface supports a conversation with the shaper. It never pretends that a generated specification replaces judgment at the bench.
Product principles
The world becomes a working system.
01 · Capacity is product
One maker is the model.
A six-week lead time and roughly seventy boards a year shape the language, inventory, and pace of commission.
02 · Geometry is conversation
The line moves together.
Outline, rocker, fins, length, and volume respond as a connected geometry rather than a menu of isolated options.
03 · Material is evidence
Foam, wood, cloth, resin.
The material sequence keeps fabrication visible and grounds the clean interface in the physical work of shaping.
Built proof
A concept carried into code.
Art direction · Configuration system · Frontend
- Board drawing
- A responsive visual model connects rider and wave inputs to outline, rocker, fins, and measurements.
- Constraint model
- Compatible ranges keep configuration useful without offering combinations the shaper would reject.
- Numbered stock
- Available blanks and finished boards retain traceable states rather than becoming anonymous inventory.
- Commission flow
- The final specification opens a dialogue with the maker instead of collapsing the work into one-click checkout.
