First board build attempt, long time lurker, Most probabably out of my league for a first board build, but i keep reading about hulls and im attempting to make a hullish S Deck With center double concave almost a tear drop shape. I guess im just looking to share and get some constructive critiscism.
This will be used on NJ/NY beach breaks
I eyed out the whole thing. Plan on thinning out the nose and keeping it flat , then fade into the concaves , then flat into the tail. Hows She look so far ?
The outcome , ride wise , would be for you to determine , you may find the board is magic under your feet . an extreme concave is a concept an opinion by another , in this case me , I wish I had not said it , dont follow , go your own way , you may surprise yourself . good luck. ps there are advocates of extreme concaves ( M Cole) and now others are following them .
I havent started measurements yet, really just eyeing the whole thing out, started to even things out last night and made a pair of calipers to get more accurate.
It looks to me that you have put the Cart before the Horse. I would have done the rail bands and worked out the rocker and thickness before going to the concaves. From what I see you seem to have moed some foam and layed out a template then went for the concaves. By the way the nose is slightly off. But an easy fix.
Don’t take this as criticism Just some advice and a few pointers from a rank amateur builder. Others with more time on a planer will chime in I’m sure.
Yea , basicaly, in that order . The pics are in the beginning stages. If you guys are interested ill keep updating . Still evening things out. Looking for the critisicm thats why i posted it up.
