Board #0002

I built board #0002 for my daughter Madison, who happens to be 9 years-old. The motif was inspired by Balsa’s board for his 9 year-old son. We did a cloth inlay that was lot’s of fish rather than the tigers, lions, giraffes, bears, etc…

Board specs:

  • Clark 6’0"R superlight blank
  • 5’5" x 18.75" x 2.25" disc/mini-mal
  • Glass 4/4,4
  • Color: spray paint
  • Resin pinlines [bled a bit during gloss coat]
  • Cloth inlay
  • Single boxed fin [copying Balsa again!]

The second board went much better than board #0001. About half the time and a better looking product. The lam went off very well this time and my gloss coat was perfect [used 17cc catalyst in one pint of Silmar gloss resin].

Thanks again for everyone’s help! And I put my own version of the Swaylock’s Inspired logo on this board this time :slight_smile:

Woody Allen is 70 , already ? [who’d have thunk it , eh ?! …great quote …one of his many ! ]

Awesome job Gunkie, specially the cloth inlay and the “swalocks inspired” at the bottom!

Good job, Gunkie! Madison looks stoked, too… I’m glad Christian’s board was inspirational to you. And now the ultimate reward: seeing your daughter’s large smile after her first wave!
