I had a Bob Pearson Arrow 9' longboard signed by Jay Moriarty but my understanding is Jay didn't shape. So it had to be a Ghost Shaper as Bob didn't do boards like this one. Best longboard ever for me until I snapped it in two going left at Sewer Peak on a big crunchy day. My friend put it back together and rode it another 6 months and then took it to Bob to have it copied and the copy was a total turd.
At least around where i am, almost any big name boards you find in the shops are made by licensed 3rd parties but they dont hide it from the consumer. There are pyzels that have laminated logos saying they were made in peru.
my ghost shaper is a 5 axis cnc router. it always shows up to work on time, is precise to the hair's width and does the work of 4 shapers.
Sounds like a nice bit of kit
When I die I want to come back as a ghost shaper.
Haha yeah not a bad way to go

How to ghost shapers get paid? By the board? By the day? Bonuses or flat rate?
It was always by the board but could have changed.

That's good to see, I know a few brands that do hide it. Do the Peru boards have the shaper penciled on it?

A stencil for a signature 😂😂😂
