Blanks, resin, ect... in the NE

new to the NE and wondering about where/how are people getting blanks here in New England. willing to drive wherever up here to see what im buying first. i know about Greenlight, but the prices are laughable. $100+ for shortboard blanks?!?! really? seems it’s cheaper to have stuff shipped from CA, but would prefer to spend my money locally/regionally.  

its true… I did a bunch of boards out there a few years ago and just shipped all my blanks from CA. 40-50.00 blanks and an average of 10.00 for shipping… The shipping was about double the gas money to go buy the same blanks for double the price.

I think i saved about 800.00 overall when i added it all up.

Where in New England are you? If you only need one or two blanks at a time, you can try getting in with an order by local shapers. There’s Jon Chino in the Boston area, Roger Beal is South of Boston, and also Dave Levy and Kevin Cunningham in RI. I know I’m forgetting a couple.

Hey Atlantic-

If you can get to Long Island I know Bunger keeps a good stock of blanks and sells them to peeps if they need them.  Probably too far for you to go but another option.

Good luck-
