EPS parabolic wood rail bonzer core

I’m not sure if i love or hate shaping EPS. It tears, spalls, then goes all fluffy and it sticks to everything… but i do seem to get on with it! This one is going high-tech… EPS core that will take a carbon-kevlar epoxy bottom, wood deck and wood rails sealed in a 4oz epoxy wrap. Strong light and very high performance. It’s quite complicated doing a core as you have make allowances in all the measurements for the wood etc… and the rails have to be glassed 100% square to get a good bond with the parabolics...  

This one will be 5’11 x 2 1/2 x 20 3/4 when finished. Any takers drop me a line.

Post Op

Just had my cartilage trimmed in a little keyhole op this weekend… so my apologies to all followers that there will be a bit of  lag before posting resumes… which is pretty frustrating as i have 4 boards to shape, one set of Freak Fish fins to foil, a kelp tint and pinlines and a Hendrix ink-job to do… so until i get back in the flow of things here's the last board to be shaped before the op…

It is a 6’5” Cleanline Bonzer 5 for Mark at Glass Tiger
