How to Make a Surfboard - Foiling and Shaping a Longboard Part 02

- In this video I foil and shape the surfboard blank into a longboard. The last video I explained my design and traced out the template on the surfboard blank. This is the second build video for the 9' 8' x 22.75" longboard.
Also a true 50/50 rail means you remove 50% of the rail from the top and bottom, at least for the first rail band. When you look down the rail it should look symmetrical, top and bottom.
If you want to know all the steps for how to make a surfboard check out some of the other build series I have done below. I've finished this surfboard and getting around to editing the videos now. More to come.
Here is where I placed the order for the surf supplies and they provided the blank to me free of charge for this build (affiliate link):

Never have I seen a video explaining the details of rails in depth as you do. Really inspirational.
Thank you and congratulations!
I shaped my first longboard two years ago and used your videos as an excellent guidance, now I am back and working on my second board and once again, I am returning to your vids. You rock man and yes, as many have mentioned, you don't nearly enough recognition for these vids. Thanks again!
Thanks for these very good instructions
I have been watching your videos and have started my own longboard because of them thank you for your knowledge and your time in producing quality content
Smart doing lines
Awesome content!, you don’t get near the recognition you deserve, Keep it up 🤙🏽
I'd recommend not having it so bright from above but rather have a number of low light sources coming in from the sides. Definitely helps to see the curvature of things and helps highlight any areas that are a bit off.
bro, you deserves more likes and viewes in yours videos!!, excellent job!!
love these vids..i have surfed for almost 50 years and realised I don't know anything about boards..i know what I like and don't like, only by riding a board, but not specifically why I like the feel of one board and not another. I'm pretty thick, but I'm learning :). definitely going to have a crack at this. excellent work Andrew...chheers from Australia
Thanks for the vid and good job on breaking down the whole process! Much appreciated!!
Thank your for your videos. They helped me a lot.
Hey Andy... Nice LongBoard! This week i will try my frist stringless board... preparing my harm to sand, and sand,,, and sand! Regards from Portugal!
Good work Bro. Nice looking Mal
Hi I've been watching your channel for awhile now your skills have really come along nicely, the long board project is looking great so far
Thanks for sharing 🔥🔥 keep a great work
These videos are awesome! Thanks! I am gathering everything I need to make my 1st performance long board just like this one! I was wondering, would it be a bad idea to strip the foam from a beat-up 10 foot softop foamie & build my board with that? Surf schools give them away sometimes... & the blank is a large portion fo the cost!
I would love to make a broad as i watch you make one. I need the workshop space 😩
Greetings,
I’m wondering....can a good scribe do the same thing as the dowels for drawing rail bands?
Hey , thanks for explication, I have a question about a stringer , i just shape my longboard but I'm chaos about stringer, my question if this stringer is necessary or there is another way to make longboard more strong??
What grits of sand do you use for each step?
Greetings from the Black Sea! Tell me what kind of ruler it is for drawing? (22.32) Is this specially for surfing?
Hello good job I search to make identic dimensions of longboard have you plans for this model please what is your glue for Woody on centre
A few questions. Thats EPS foam correct? Also if I wanted to do a nose rider what kind of rocker would I want? Length etc.
Yes EPS foam. As Rex said, look up the Clark foam catalog, there are some good starting points in there. My other suggestion is to head to a surf shop and take a look at a ton of boards and find something that is a nose rider. Board rentals and try out something to see if you like it and base your design off that, Google is your friend too, I'm sure this question has been asked some where on the interweb :). Good luck!
Hey Andrew do you ever make custom boards for surfers? I was just wondering because I love your style of boards!
Hey, thanks, no I don't would like to maybe some day but just don't have the time now to even make all the boards I want :)
Hi Andrew, about to shape my first board and have a question after watching your video. if you marked the intended apex of the rail and then removed foam on the hard 45 degree-ish angle to that mark does that not mean when you blended everything the apex is actually lower than your original mark?
i feel i have seen in other brief videos people mark above and below the intended apex of the rail, but this was on sped up compilation which they don't offer an explanation
Hey Andrew I always enjoy your videos. By the way, where can I get this tool you're using to trim the wood ? thanks!
You can get it on green light surfboards
What is foil?
Perfect video, I shaped and glassed one when I was younger, glassing is hell, back from Biarritz and have my new longbooard all cut out and redy for the rails, so nice work Maytay!! I have to shape mine in front yard here in san diego, neighbors love me, cheers, stuman
P.S read the only Galactic surf adventure book in the world, took my ten years to finish it, kidneptunebook.com/
I'm really sure you can build it yourself. I did this 2 weeks ago thanks to the Woodglut plans.
Speak to much
