What is the purpose of channels, how do you make them,where at on the board what kind of tail is needed, and any other type of information about them, also pictures would be nice so I could visualize them…
Search the archives, Luke, feel the force.
Thanks I always forget about that special place…
the purpose of channels is to give your laminator and sander a bad case of the m-fing SHITS! They’ll hate you for channels. I would.
Howzit Honolulu, The good thing is that we can charge extra money( $40 ) for channeled boards and there is a technique that makes glassing them a lot easier. Aloha,Kokua
What do they do for the surfing experience
Loose board, easy to tail slide and drift, quick to change direction without banking.
Good for glassy conditions, no current, no boils, clean swells.
Quick to reattach from slides, fun but not snappy.
