  1. Iggy was a awesome human and will be deeply missed. I am glad that I had the chance to know him. I will ride the many magic boards he shaped for me with fond memories of Harold riding the waves and wind...

  4. Iggy was a master shaper and a proud memory was the 1st board he made especially for me when I worked at Weber shop in late 60's. "Fast Eddie" was a "Feather" and was adorned with Harolds signature. He is a special soul and like Dewey a mentor. Aloha.

  5. I was very sad to hear the passing of our master craftsman Harold Iggy. I didnt know him personally but I could feel his connection and concentration he put into his craft . His work is and always be an inspiration for me. Rest in Peace soul rider! Mark Brog
