My second attempt <pics>

I finished up shaping my second attempt at a surfboard tonight. Second board went WAY faster than the first, at this point with the first board I had at least 12 or 13 hours into it. With this board I took it from blank to finished shape ready for glass in 4 hours.

Finished shape is 6’1" x 18 7/8" x 2 1/4", wide point 1 3/4" back, 15" tail, 12" nose, foiled out rails. Getting glassed clear 6x6x6.

With my 6’2" Cole Flightdeck, before turning the rails. I used this board for my inspiration and went from there.

Finished 2nd shape next to my first board that I finished last week.

Gonna start with these, RS1/RS2 w/ inside foil. Anyone else use them before? Any feedback?

Single into…

Double into…

Slight Vee out the last 4 inches

Happy but a freaking mess. My wife now says she knows what I will look like after I start to go grey.

I hope to start glassing it tomorrow after doing some chores around the house. Should be done for the next swell. Will let you guys know how she works then.

Love the diamond tail.

My daily driver has one and it’s my favorite by far.

Nice shape.

This second board looks great. I am impressed, especially since I’m turning out my first right now, and am having some problems with symmetricity. The bottom contours look great too. Hopefully my second will be a good improvement. Good luck.
