    Robert “Redman” Manville (1952-2004) was an East Coast shaping legend who hand sculpted over 35,000 surfboards. Redman was a production shaper for over forty manufacturers including Weber, Hatteras Glass, WRV, Stewart and Jacobs. Redman was respected and was always humble.
    Redman lived for shaping and shaping was his life.

    Redman’s remarkable work ethic was matched only by his knowledge and contacts, not to mention his stacks of modern templates which past and present WRV shapers still use to this day.  WRV was soon shipping boards to Hawaii and beyond for big-name chargers who swore by Redman’s boards.
    Redman forgot more about shaping than most guys learn in an entire career.
