Super cool! I am a huge wake surfer and love watching you guys build and ride the board!
I would love to see a foil board next! I'm in the market for a new one if you need a tester/buyer🤣
Hey thanks man! Wake surfing is so stinking fun, absolutely love it! Actually just finishing up my second foil board right now, vid soon to come! Shoot me a message on insta if you want a custom order, shipping might sort of suck, but custom boards are pretty damn cool and unique @rockandseasurfco
Where did you get you fin box and fins?
Foamez.com shappersupply.com! One caveat, here we used real surfboard fin boxes and small surfboard trailer fins in this board (these fit 1/2 fin boxes). Technically pro wake surf companies likely have their own proprietary wakesurf fin boxes and fins. So a DIY will be using a little different hardware
Nice job. How was the carbon bottom to work with?
Very hard wrapping carbon around such tiny rails, would be way easier if you have a vacuum bagging set up! I had to baby sit the rails for quite a while laying down any areas it tried to pull away or form bubbles. End product turned out awesome though
river board next??
that would be super fun, if I ever make it up to Bend Oregon, would totally shape a board to surf in their river park
