Steve Adler Southern California Board Builder Icon Passes Away!

Board Builder, Craftsman, Surfer, and all around incredible guy Steve Adler passed away last
Thursday March 11, 2010. Steve was a lifelong friend and he had the
idea to start Foam E-Z. He
presented the concept to me on the way home from an evening mountain
bike ride at El Morro in Laguna Beach. Within a couple of weeks of that bike ride we
began Foam E-Z in May of1993. Foam E-Z and I would not be what we are
today without Steve’s involvement. Adler was an accomplished board
builder having built his own brand under The Surfboard Board Factory
name. Recently he was working with Tim Stamps helping to develop Stamps SUP line. Steve
was incredibly involved in the SUP World and a business partner with
Jodie Nelson in the SUP Spot.

Check out Steve’s
Facebook Page
for more information on this incredible person. A
college fund for his only son Clark (13 years old) has been set up at Farmers &
Merchants Bank
. Checks should be made out to CLARK ADLER, please still write Clark Adler in the memo.
All payments can be mailed in or dropped off at any Farmers &
Merchants Bank

He will be dearly missed by everyone who had the
chance to meet or spend any time with him. It is hard to believe that
he is gone.

RIP

Brad, the Nadell Family, and the entire
Foam E-Z Crew.
