A great board for those small summer fun waves.

Ready for Summer

1 Day Shaping Workshops

After years of holding 3 Day Workshops, we are introducing 

1 Day Shaping Workshops.

You start with a pre made Blank, made by us, then we teach you have to shape and create your very own Wooden Surfboard. Similar to the way a conventional surfboard is made, but it's not fibreglassed when finished.

These are aimed at the person who does not have time to come to a 3 Day Building and Shaping Workshop, but still wants to make themselves a Wooden Surfboard.

Check out the website for dates. 

Phils Finished Boards

Phil sent us this photo of his finished boards, he came to a Workshop in June 2013 and made the 6'4" Fish and came back again in June this year and made the 6' 10"Thruster.

He plans to come back next year to make another board, Great job Phil, I like the pin lines!
