Sorry guys, no Lake Superior surfing photos today 
Too much ice even if it wasn’t dangerously cold …
While icelocked for a while, I’m catching up on shaping. Took out the 8’3" U.S. Blank today that I bought before Christmas and cut the outline, and mowed a couple passes off the top and bottom.
Outline is similar to a Hobie slug … eggish kinda … good east coast/Great Lakes board with a shorter length.
Looking for opinions on the bottom contours. Considering either a simple flat to vee, or possibly some channels?
Going with 2+1 on this as well. Should have the outline finished tonight/tomorrow and be ready to vee the tail, then start planning out the rails and bottom contours. Ready to glass in a couple weekends.
Didn’t take much off of the blank – used most of the outline. No big scraps left for repairs this time!
