After posting my first wooden board (pic 1) a few months ago I have now finished the second one
I was able to reduce the boards weight to 9.5kg by using PVC foam for the internal ribs and laminated foam, cork and paulownia for the frame (rails). The tail block is still the same, australian red cedar, deck and base are paulownia.
Size: 9' * 29 1/2'' * 4''
Enjoy the pics!
fark that thing looks amazing.you have a real talent there.are u taking orders?th only thing I ever made out of wood was a dunnyroll holder.
Bull$#!? this looks amazing.
9.5kg as well.. What a job.
Your bathtubs look good as well. Real craftsmanship. The thing is that not only is the wood working neat, the shape looks great as well.
Absolutely stunning.
Just seeing the board floating in the water makes me want to grab mine and head to the nearest body of water for a paddle
Unfortuntely the nearest body of water is the office toilet
MMMM MMMM
Got to love that board. A top quality finish and a great shape. I surf a HWS 11'9Sup as well. They feel great under foot. Might even be at the RPS paddle on sunday for a splash.

That finish is amazing. I'd have no idea (or ability) to make something that good.
What's your trade? Chippy?
Now you are just showing off.... that is bloody brilliant not only is it a work of art , it's great shape and light too. Good to see you spent the extra bucks and got the Gerry Quad sets , what made you go from FSC to Future boxes ?.

from a shapers point of view thats is really a great looking peice of art well done i couldnt even consider a board like that wow!!! i think i will stick to foam
I have had the pleasure of seeing the first board in the flesh at it was impressive enough (and from all accounts it went well too), this one looks even better! Keep it crankin mate cause they look so awesome!
Yep. That sure is a work of art.
If you have any snaps of the board being built I'm sure that there would be plenty of people lurking around here keen to see what goes into making a board like that.
