In Retrospect - Resort 22 Capsule Collection
This season we explore and celebrate the benchmark that is ten gracious years of spain-hotels-seville-barcelona-madrid-granada.
A daily devotion that has evolved into a heartfelt decade of not just making suits but bringing function and feminity to surfers, expanding the confidence and empowerment of personhood, and improving our commitment and connection to the planet.
Retro- means back, -spect- means look. Time flies filled with love.

Funboarding With Leah Dawson
For me, boards and fins represent infinite in surfing. The element of the ‘art piece’ that becomes our vehicle is unique to surfing, it’s the perfect blend of creativity, science, and exploration in sport.
Riding different boards keeps surfing new and fresh because there’s always something to adapt to, and to lend an entirely new feeling to riding waves.
I grew up in Florida where riding bigger boards were a must if you wanted to surf all the time because the waves were often minuscule. This led me to a love of boards of all sizes, and therefore opened a lifetime of exploration for the variances one can experience with board shape, rail shape, tail shape, fin shape, and on and on. - Leah Dawson
VAL
Shaped By: Alex Lopez
Board Breakdown: A big Twin fin, big fish swallow tail, retro down rail, a board alex made for my friend Jordan. The video clip was my first and only wave on it, it works! 6’4” rounded nose.
PAREIDOLIA
Shaped By: Alex Lopez
Board Breakdown: 6.25” glass on single fin, diamond tail pin, old school single-fin down rail, with custom art by Thomas Campbell. 6’4", just under 19… Alex hand shapes everything so no liters available, and he keeps his dimensions to himself in a booklet ;)
PINKY
Shaped By: Alex Lopez
Board Breakdown: 5’7" old school shortboard inspired by a shortboard Donald TAKAYAMA made me for hawaii. With a winged swallow tail, slight down-rail, thicker than standard shortboards allows the board to ride bigger waves.
ANGELO
Shaped By: 88 Surfboards
Board Breakdown: Stock 7’ soft top, finless freedom! These are high quality soft tops built for performance.
DONA TELLA
Shaped By: Alex Lopez
Board Breakdown: 8’0 Single Fin, wide point forward, pin tail, slight down-rail, with most of the foam through the chest and nose for early entry. Riding with a 8.25" flex fin, pulled in pintail, this board is meant to be a wave catcher with great maneuverability off the tail.
TERRAPIN
Shaped By: Alex Lopez
Type Of Board: Alex’s take on an egg, 7’4", wide point forward with a pulled in pintail. The deck is quite flat with a slight kick in the nose, tapered down rail, and sharp edges through the tail. Great for paddling and riding waves 1ft-10ft, riding a 8.25" flex fin.
