About Us

Welcome to Rees Shapes

My name is Craig Rees and I may be best known as the founder of Primitive Surf a Queensland based surf company. During my years in business I also started the Post Code Challenge, the Corporate Surf Challenge and the Surf Again Successfully (SAS) program.

I shaped my first surfboard in 1988, and like most shapers I went from making boards for myself, to my friends, and eventually proper customers. As a shaper I get great satisfaction from seeing one of my boards in the water, in a photo of a remote pumping reef break, or by having a story told by someone about a board’s performance and the good times had. Thousands of blanks later my desire to shape boards and share stories still remain.

The stickman logo has been with me from the start and will remain part of my shaping moving forward. He was never going to miss out on the next wave so welcome to Rees Shapes and the new home of the Stickman... Get out there, get amongst it!
