Shaping 101


FD and JC in the shop with a 9-9B green-weight US Blank, custom glued with a 1.5" balsa stringer. we lowered the nose and tail rocker to make it ready for an early 60's classic longboard reproduction. It will get a classic volan glass job and a custom glass-on "D" fin.
Francesco and I will shape this one. More "Shaping 101" experience for FD.




FD at Hobie, giving Terry Martin some advice on the finer points of shaping.....Italian style.
