I built this hollow plywood and composite/cork board. Its dimensions are 6’5" x 20" x 3" bottom shape is single to double to V. It is my favorite board ive ever made, insanely light weight and I feel like its changed the way I surf. This said, I want to make one that is 6’8"x 20 3/4" x 3" for when its a bit bigger. My Question here is How should i change the rocker as its length increases ? the 6’5" has 4 1/2" nose and about 2" tail. I suppose the 6’8" version of this design should have a slight change in rocker, but i just cant decide. so thanks for looking / giving me your ideas.
11 lbs . ok so not insanely light but a very healthy board. 42 liters or something. thing rips. It has a sound to it when it gets going fast, and it flexes a tiny bit but what is flex anyway. a resonance i tihnk
thanks greenlight, Judging by how the 6’5" rides I think the same rocker will do quite nice. I think the 6’8" boards delayed trastition from single concave aft will make more of a speed demon for down the line power too Ive shaped foam and wood, i find that i can make a plywood hollow in less time too by cutting out the external glassing/ finish work. Internal Glass on these Hollow boards is jsut part of the build process, so a few coats of resin seals em up perfectly and quick
