  • David Nicklas developed Rogue Wave Surfboard Repair, an app that makes it easy to connect surfers with the surfboard-repair services he provides in Los Angeles. Here, David walks us through how he repairs a vintage 1960s Dewey Weber surfboard shaped by the legendary JoJo Perrin. The process includes scraping off board wax, cleaning the board, fixing large patches of delamination, filling dings, applying hot coat to waterproof the board, then sanding and polishing to finish. The entire process takes 20 hours, but it extends the lifetime of this rare surfboard, making it water-ready.
    Timecodes:
    00:17 Cleaning
    00:55 Check for delamination
    01:31 Check for dings
    01:48 Fixing dings
    02:21 Fixing delamination
    03:37 Sand delamination
    03:52 Waterproofing

    Beautiful work!! Love Weber family. Used to surf for them when I was little in san clemente. I still have all my old boards, performer, pig, stylist. How much would it cost to restore a 6' board ?

    If you mix qcell with lam resin, wouldn’t the surface be too sticky to sand?

  • @user-vi4ls1wf5t
    @user-vi4ls1wf5t Před 4 měsíci

    How did you adhere the old glass to the q cell? Did you shape the q cell down to flush and then add another layer of resin+qcell before clamping? Or was it just resin? 3:15

  • @pacificspecialtiesps3345

    there is a date code that is shown in the video in pencil on next to the stringer
    JOJO PERRIN the original shaper mentioned in the video was 14 in 1964 and supposedly did not strart shaping surfboards until 1970?
    the image in pencil on the foam next to the stringer is not clear but suggests the date code to be 9-83
    the five digit number before the date code suggest the model code or the 26644th surfboard shaped by the individual who signed it.

  • @itsunlikelyforyoutoseethis9842

    This is amazing

  • @Jason-TheChad-Muska_circa1995

    Why not just remove all of the fiberglass and cut out the emblem of the maker of the board clean that up and then reglass over that?

      Not enough skill. Obvious rooky.

      Because it’s a restoration, you want to preserve as much of the original material used back in the 60’s otherwise is a new board, and the value decreases.

    60's? I'd say 90's based on the thickness of glass and serial number.

    • @surferdude8086
      @surferdude8086 Před rokem

      In the 60s. Yes. This board is more likely shaped in the early 80s.

    • @TheSurferYoda
      @TheSurferYoda Před rokem +2

      I own a Dave Sweet longboard made in 1958. He and Hobie were the first to experiment with foam and my 58 is foam. But it’s still about 40 lbs. so foam was around in the 60’s, but not likely fin boxes nor the through the board leash plug. I agree with Surfer Dudes earlier comment it’s most likely an 80’s board, even late 1980’s.
