What's this?

While enjoying a therapeutic day of dumpster diving I came across this…

Is this a belly board?

It’s a knee board used in waterskiing, you sometimes see them at Cable Skiiing sites…

Get rid of the strap and chuck a fin on it, good score, I love council cleanups…

That I will do! Thanks for the info.

Do it as a twinnie…

Hi sirwanksalot!

I was thinking (due to lack of serious blanks here) to make a bodybooard. I have one and it’s made of some strange and soft plastic.

It has no sharp rails. So i was thinking about shaping it as a small surfboard 1 mt long (3 ft?)and putting on two keels.

Could you give some advice about it? Is it correct to put keels or a fin in a bodyboard? do sharp rails affect the board’s performance?

thank you,

There’s a thread around here somewhere about making your own bodyboard. I’ve seen small fins on bodyboards before. Good luck!

thank you! I’ll have a search about it.
