i recently had the opportunity to attend a Hollow Wooden Surfboard Building class with Paul Jensen from the U.S.A. it was a great week and a great introduction into the art of building timber boards something i had never found the time to do previously... stay tuned you may see a black apache or two recreated in the timber guise soon. watch this space.

next the frame is mocked up ready to have the skins attached top and bottom
here the deck skin is glued into place
"if you can read this your board is ruined"
a cheeky message i left to make me laugh should the unthinkable ever happen
cinder blocks and clamps... tools that you would not normally associate with surfboard building

ready for glassing
