Getting into board making has given me a new lease on surfing.
I've just started at a new school where i get to actually take classes in surfing, and surf excellence.
We are a doing a project around a sustainable, crowd sourced board, inspired by what Hayden Cox did on the WSL facebook page.
Making it as a compsand so it will last ages and I'm gunna try to source some plant based epoxy, therefore sustainable, and all the kids from the program got together with me at lunch and we all voted on general shape, dimensions, bottom contours etc, (we have decided on a squaretail egg kinda shape), so crowd sourced.
The board will be done at school, all steps shown to the kids.
After its finished each kid gets to take it home for a week and surf it and swap it around, at the end of the year we will raffle it to raise a few funds to buy a new camera to film the students and stuff as ours is rooted.
The froth is strong in this old man.
