Blanks

Hey all,

Been searching around here and other places for a while.  Wanted to use the wisdom of Swaylock’s on the topic of blanks (surf, SUP and wakesurf)

I’m in Cape Charles, VA (Chesapeake Bay side).  Moved here in December, live in an apartment so I don’t have a shaping space as yet, and have been renting shaping space from the fellas at Sothis Glassing in VA Beach (check them out, they do sick work for Seasoned, Bill Frierson, and a bunch of others)

Being on the Bay side, there is a lot more market for SUP’s and wake surfs.  Where do you guys get your blanks, what kind, feedback?  So far I’ve gone through Coastal Surf Supply in OC MD and WRV/US Blanks in VA Beach.

Anybody make wake surf-specific blanks or is it just a shorty chopped down?

Anybody done much with the Incide blanks that USBlanks has started marketing? feedback?

Thanks as always for your time and wisdom.

JD

 

 

I’m a couple hours south of you on Hatteras Island.  I buy a big block of foam and cut my own.  I have a couple of 12ft blocks to do SUPs or whatever else you’d need. Most of the guys around here get their’s from WRV or get together and place a large order from whoever to save on shipping.
