The San Juan factory at Byron Bay was opened by Ken Adler after he moved from Ballina, the name San Juan came from his wife who spoke Spanish and said it would be a name everyone would remember. She was so right not only was it unusual, but they turned out some of the best boards ever from that factory, with the top shapers and Glassers of the time, it was considered the go to factory for a new board for many years, and as you can see they are still a collectors dream today.
