In leafing through the yearbook, it was clear where this demographic had gone: Surfboard Shaping class!
?Que?

Don't ask me, I have no idea what the deal is with the class. All I know is that it is awesome. Or rad? Or bitchin'? That's what it would have been in 1988, if it had been offered.
The yearbook says that “Juniors and Seniors hand cut their own hand made custom surfobaords” using fibergloass, Styrofoam and epoxy resin. It takes 12 weeks to make one short board, and then they can graduate to making another short board or a long board. ”Surfboard Shaping is a class which consistently fills to capacity each semester.”

This is a photo of the Surfboard Shaping teacher. Please note: He also teaches Ceramics. This one will go in the category of "modern interpretation of that which is shockingly similar."
