A bit late... my #3

Hi, just a bit late (finished the shape on December 2005) but here’s my number 3, Eps-Epoxy board, i’m really happy with it even if i used it just once.

Cann’t wait for winter waves!

Regards from Italy Flavio



Flavian-san,

It might be the way I SEE the picture,but…that’s a tiny box for all that board…what kind is it?

It’s a home made box, the fin slot is 15cm long, since where i live it’s impossible to find spares i’ve to do all by myself, even leash cups using my ooold lathe and mill. (for board #4 i’ll use a leash loop)

What fin dimension you suggest me? i’ve no experience at all and a fin takes just a little time to be done with plywood and resin.

Regards Flavio

A lot has to do with the shape(of the fin and the board)…but a fin somewhere in the 5.0 inch base about 8 or 9 inches tall , in a raked shape …checkout some of the boards on the photo page under resources.That should give you an idea of what type of fin.

9 Inches, it’s much bigger than the one i’ve done, now i know what to do during the next sleepless night!

Thank you very very much.

Regards Flavio
