Blank supplier needed - Vic. Aust.

I am currently shaping a fish board and the dimensions are not quite the standard short board shape :slight_smile:

Can somebody let me know of who the best suppliers for blanks are in Victoria, Australia. Due to the dimensions, I may need to make a custom order for the blank.

maybe www.shapersaustralia.com

Get in touch with Matt and Tommy at Island on PI. Or Oke, if they still exist? I bought my first blank from a fibreglass suppier in suburban Blackburn of all places. Good luck.

Burfords have reps in Vic. Ring the number listed and ask for Mal or Darren - they will point you in the right direction.

Try Southcoast foam and fibreglass ph 07 5522 1600 based on the gold coast but can deliver anywhere. The 6’5" knee board blank should do the trick it’s around 25+" wide, 3 1/4" thick and flat deck for good volume. Just drop the nose rocker for an old school fish.

Sorry to reply again but the kneeboard blank is probably a good idea. Try Neil Luke at Island Surfboards, if he’s still there. He made thousands of kneeboards while I was there, but that was a while ago. Good luck.
