Hi guys,
After building a few hollow wooden shortboards, I decided to build a stand up paddle board.
Well, it is now finished and I have added a few pics
Size: 9'9'' * 29 3/4'' * 4 1/2'' Weight: 12,3kg
The materials I used are:
- Paulownia and cork for the rails
- Paulownia for deck ad base
- Tailblock Australian Red Cedar
- Ribbings plywood
- Glassed with epoxy and a two pack top coat
Looks great, is it hollow?
EDIT: Derp, disregard, I just read your post properly
Emanuel that is an absolutely beautiful looking board , well done mate.
love the pic of the frame work and the nice clean workshop.
Great all round board design and specs , it should rip.
So how many hours did this take ?
Great effort and thanks for posting the pics.

Absolutely superb, well done. Love to see more pictures of the construction if you have them.
Awesome job - a beautiful looking board
Interesting laying up the rails like that before putting on the top and bottom skins?
Gorgeous looking board. Interesting to see no spine. It looks like it simplifies construction a bit.
It would be good to see some detail photos of the inside of the handle and the fin boxes.
thats unreal looking stick well done pat yourself on the back
love the red cedar tail block looks sick
Must be wonderful taking off on a few threatening waves & doing some sweet turns on a board you've made yourself A++ esp when the board looks sweet too. Wot would BP think ?
This begs the obvious questions:
- how do you get an accurate rocker line without a stringer?
- what software did you use to make the templates?
There are a lot of beautiful looking boards posted on this forum but your one is an absolute cracker. It looks as good on the outside as the work you've put into it on the inside. If you have any more photos of the construction process - please post them.
Fantastic work.
I was supping in Albany last christmas and there was a bloke out on a wooden SUP he had made and his son was surfing a homemade balsa fish shortboard. They look unreal. To me the wooden boards are priceless.
Would be interested to see how you strengthened around then fin box and plugs.
Keep the pics coming.

Sickkkkk man,
That is an insane construction, I love it. C'mon how much for us seabreezers....
The shape is great as well, that would be awesome in the small to medium waves.
Give your self a pat on the back dude
holy crap that is bueatiful Emanuel
seeing you are just down the coast from me i would love to hook up some time to check it out and have a few sly waves with you
later
. Two guys have tested it so far and were stoked. I'm pretty happy that it doesn't only look good but also surfs well! (No wall hanger!).
love the pic of the frame work and the nice clean workshop. So how many hours did this take ?
Got the idea with the rail from hesssurfboards. I think he has a foam core in his boards and I use plywood stringers (prefer working with wood)
That is just a thing of beauty!
Fantastic job chap, reminds me of the balsa plane kits I made as a kid.
When are you going to produce kits?
WANT ONE!
and the right guy to test my board. I'm thinking that must be you.
saw this board at coffs. it better in real life if that is possible. and it is up to speed in performance from the little i know about sups. would be worth a bundle
