2012 New Years Resolution for Everyone - Shape Your Own Board
2011 was a great year for interest in clients shaping their own surfboards. I find it especially rewarding to pass along what meager knowledge I have attained throughout my own shaping experiences. There is something very fulfilling about shaping and surfing on something that you yourself have created. I encourage anyone and everyone to give it a try sometime. You may only make one board or you may succumb to the power of the planer and take it on as a hobby or job. Either way it will give you an deaper appreciation for the art and what you are riding on and get you thinking a little bit about your plank.
Here is a pick that "DB" just sent me of his first attempt at shaping. Nice rail band buddy. Keep it up!
