Just a little project I've been working on for about a week. My bro Gray snapped this bad boy about a year ago. He was gonna throw it away and asked if I wanted it to do anything with. Since my buddy Matt might com into town, and needs a shred sled, I thought if I bring it back, that maybe he'll be able to use it. What do you guys think? This thing was in two pieces last week!
Went surfing today and then started qork on the fin boxes. Surf today was super windy. The wind chill was pretty bad but the water was still easily in the 70°s. I wore a wetsuit and found it wasn't nessesary and also that I'm out of shape. Surfing with wetsuit on is some serious work. These pics are of the fin box install. Hope thet come out well. I've never done it before and i felt a little out of sorts doing it. These are pro boxes with a mackee 5 fin set up. Should work well, looking to get alot of built in drive.
Don't know if you you can tell buy i put the sand coat on the bottom today. The sand coat is basiclly the fill coat. It fills in all the fiber patterns in the fiberglass and also makes all the patches that are over the finboxes and logos blend seamlessly. It also has wax in it. The wax makes the resin sandable when dry. It also makes for a smooth comp sand feel, just like all the boards at the surf shop.
