Synopsis

Maybe you’ve surfed for a while and already know what works for you or maybe you’ve just started surfing and now you want to make your own board because it’s part of the stoke of surfing. Whatever, it doesn’t matter. This guide intends to provide you with a simplified process to help you make the best surfboard possible.

Making surfboards is an art. Shapers are unique. Covered in foam dust all day, they emerge from their shaping bays with these incredibly flimsy pieces of foam. Aerodynamic in every sense, each plug of foam, was meticulously hand shaped into a missile of extreme beauty. All the secrets gained over years of honing their craft go into every board. Each curve and hollow are processed with deft care to ensure every board produced, excels in performance, completely in tune with the magic of the ocean and her timeless energy.

Speed, stability, driving power-turns, it’s all there in the final shape. Not too much and not too little makes all the difference. It’s a science gained through trial and error. Every shaper will tell you his/her war stories of how they started with their first shapes. How they burned their first shaped plug by mixing the resin too hot when they laminated and so on. The stories are legend.

Well, those guys never had this guide to follow when they started, like you now have. So, hopefully, we can remove a lot of the stigma and secrecy attached to the manufacture of surfboards and provide you with a hands-on guide of what to do and how to do it. All the materials, all the tools you’ll need, da worx…you get it all…!
