Default RE: RC Surfer

Thanks for the kind words on the shaping but seriously not my best effort, a work in progress on the prototype end, may loose some of the "bump" after the gear gets fitted, especially the drum winch.
This foam took me for a bit of a surprise, it shapes almost a little TOO easily, got the rails thinner than I wanted but gonna see how it works!

Shaped a few really fun rideable boards in my college years, in fact sold one of the in Mexico on a surf trip so we could extend our trip and still have gas $$ to get home!!

Wish I had more time for building, off skiing tomorrow!

Need to get some glass cloth, is 4 oz. sufficent...toying between epoxy and cheaper styrene based resin...
