Corky, bellyboard

3' belly board for Jim. I pressed two layers of cork onto some paulownia and added a little kick in the nose. Then I glassed it with entropy bio resin. Jim likes some handles at power points so he can push and pull so he can bury the rails on turns. I added the cork so it would add some float. I hope to get some feedback tomorrow.

At the sacred craft

These are a few more of the items we will have at the Sacred Craft. Above is a 8'0'' orange foam bluegill with square tail. This one is looking like a classic Simmons, That guy really knew what he was doing. Below is a 6'1''. This board is pretty sick, shape and wood layout.

There will be various alaias. 5'10 Peanuts to 7'6'' Anchovies. Above, 6'7'' with really nice grain.

4'0'' Belly board. I will have a couple of blanks and some some hand planes, and the hollow redwood board from a post a couple of weeks ago. I kind of made these boards for myself and would like to keep them all, but it is hard to make a living that way.

Fin, belly board, and alaia

This fin will be going on the sequoia, paulownia board. It is made with the same woods. It has a light smoke color bead.





The bellyboard, paipo,tombstone, etc. is 3'6'' with a concave deck, belly to vee out the tail, and Morey style rails. The anchovy is a 7'8'' with a vee bottom. A replica of my favorite board, just a bit wider.
