Hi,
could finish my latest “project” today. hope you guys enjoy.
about the video:
main timelapse parts captured with gopro HD, all other parts were filmed with a DSLR.
several parts are left out to keep it “short” (6min are more than enough)
about the board:
EPS core with 2x 200g glass, epoxy, quadfin setup, 4mm plywood stringer.
6.0 x extra wide x extra thick & nearly flat!
i used selfmade finplugs, leashplug will be added soon.

Nice little vid and the board looks sweet. Are you the guy that made the aluminum mold with red fiberglass/resin finboxes? What was the black lam in the tail? Just black ink on rice paper or was it something structural like carbon fiber?
A couple of things, why no lap on the bottom lam, and get a wider brush (3") for your fill coats and push the resin from the center out towards the rail in full strokes. Okay, three things, you can roll your deck cloth back from the nose and tail making it much easier to roll it back out after laying down your lams.
Regardless, the board looks like it will rip.
Nice Video, had fun watching it.
Yes, That was me with the plugs.
Sorry, forgot to mention that the black stuff is unidirectional Carbon fiber. Very thin stuff, 50g or so - so just optic.
Thanks for your advice. I dont do a freelap on the bottom cause I think 400g of cloth is enough for the rails. Dont know, Never had Problems with that.
Happy you like it!
I didn't notice in the vid, did you do a full double lap from the deckside? I agree, that's plenty glass on the rails. Just seems like it would be hard to keep the rail edges drip and fiber free not running a lap from the bottom to the deck side. If you're neat enough, I don't see why that wouldn't work.
Duuuude, loved the video!
Very well done & it wasn’t too long.
thanks for posting it.
That was fun to watch.
Very Relaxing to watch. Thanks.
I like watching someone like you with their own unique style.
Well done.
So sick! that board is legit too and even though i just finished a board today that got me stoked to shape another.
Awesome video!
I feel like improving my shaping room.
Stoke!
And the board looks really sweet!
Thanks for sharing!
