Ben Gravy yeah dude that would be sick, can't wait to see how it turns out!!!!

Ben Gravy! What are you doing here?? You are everywhere!!! Yewwww!

Ben , when you doing a recycled polyboard bro. Looking for it. Bring it!

outsidersurfsk8 thanks so much!

Thanks dude!

This was probabaly most of davids inspiration for his retro fish board

thanks I appreciate it. Got another surfboard video idea in the making so stay tuned

I'd say it's the exact same, that's awesome!

Thanks

Stagliano's Boards thanks!

That's awesome dude!

Thank you! Try it out dude!!!!

Thank you for watching!

smoz thanks a lot!

Barry P thanks so much dude!!

Thanks dude

Yeww

Quentin Dorleans yeewwww thanks man. And that would be awesome!

The unstoppable Freefall definitely do it! It's awesome!!!

Anthony Leone thanks dude!!!

Thanks!

Thank you!

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!!

Awesome good luck

Surfmus thank you!

for the stringer pretty sure i marked out the total length and then every six or so inches marked out the height to get the shape of my rocker that i wanted and then drew up the profile and cut it out. Sorry for the late reply hope this helps.

Thanks, a good pointer would be get everything you need ready to do the job around the surf board to make the process go alot smoother

And work the resin from the middle of the board to the outward edges

Jan-Willem Vink yeah I cut the blank in half and glued it in basically as you described 👍 I put tied downs around it to sandwich it together. Hope this helps you out.

Hey, I didn't shape mine with any concave. The board is really durable (that was one of my concerns too) just make sure there is a stringer in there for strength and I went two layers of glass on the bottom and one on top. It is a great daily rider, it's awesome to surf. Definitely, give it a go!

Joshua D'Ath SBC how long did it take to complete

Tom McA About three weeks, but you could do it in a week if you were super keen and had time

Brandon Simanski made them out of plywood and just fibre glassed them on

Hey man! I got the polystyrene from a fish and chip shop, but you might find some at supermarkets and electronic stores (tv packaging and stuff) Or I guess you could buy some from Bunnings. I got the fiberglass and epoxy stuff from this website: www.fibreglassshop.co.nz and it came within a few days I think. Hope that helps. Yeewww

that will help allot, thanks!

No problem dude!

Good question, Im not too sure because I wasn't worried about that, but it is a pretty light board I would say

Bello Works thanks!!!

Gorilla glue premium

Jason Filla take a pencil, lay your friends favourite board on its side rail on top of a length of stringer plywood and draw around the board rocker and walla rocker is drawn onto plywood. then cut on the outside of the pencil line and glue stringer into foam blank. you can use white pva wood glue or gorilla glue tto glue it .

*voila (not walla). It's French.

tony beatbutcher yeah I've been thinking of making a set of fins with acetone melted polystyrene.

Joshua D'Ath SBC Cool. Must be simple. But to laminate it you 'll first need to put a protective layer. Otherwise it will bite the foam.

Aaron Sharpe somewhere between 6 or 10 depending on how big you want it

outsidersurfsk8 thanks!!

Just gathered it up

@@joshuadathsbc5765 Where'd you gather it up from ? I live in Dunedin and want to try this... I'm thinking maybe lurk around fish market / supermarket around closing time... any pointers would be much appreciated! haha

@@suzukiton Im pretty sure the ones I used were seafood/fish boxes so see if there's any seafood or fish market places around your area and ask for any discarded polystyrene

@@joshuadathsbc5765 thanks bro will do!

Epoxy resin doesn't melt polystyrene...only polyester resin does that.

Yewwwww

Thanks

Haha so true

@@joshuadathsbc5765 btw, I used a hot-wire to roughly shape my board. Worked really really nice. Just make a steel wired bow with a branch, and attach a desktop power supply, 12V at 16A. I followed a wooden template both for the top and side cuts. Im currently laminating...

@@JANDEJOEP awesome! We tried to make a hot wire but but it just went red hot in the middle and melted haha I think we had the wrong guage wire

@@joshuadathsbc5765 hahahaha nice that you tried. I used 0.8mm wire. It measured around 1.0 Ohms for 1.5m length of wire. So would have got 12 Amps @ 12V (didnt measure), I found it cut somewhat on the slow side for figure cutting, but worked perfect for controlled cutting of the EPS board. I might suggest taking a wire just a bit thinner, or up the voltage.

@@JANDEJOEP good suggestions 👍

Marissa Grace inserted a leash plug

Joshua D'Ath SBC thanks I loves the video

You can see it at 2:25 its Gorilla Glue premium. Its waterproof and doesn't dissolve the polystyrene. Hope this helps!

glue brown or white pva wood glue

Jake Atherly haha thanks

Gina Alther thank you!!

Hi! I'm Gina and I did not make that comment. Surely it was my 12 yr old! 😆 He is right though, it is cool! Thank you for making a positive impression on him with your awesome, eco-friendly creation!

Gina Alther haha thanks a lot! I'm glad you both enjoyed it 👍

Sasha Blazanovic hi! I made mine 5'4" x 21.5" x 3" hopefully your project is fun!

Appreciate it! and yeah can't wait to start

Haha thanks brother!

Incorrect. The same ounces used to laminate a PU is the same as to an EPS. You are using ounces/liquid to cover an area. Hence it's the same. You may want to find information to back up your comment. And if you're going to write that Epoxy resin is spent more for EPS, it may be that you think EPS foam sucks more resin, yes it does, if it wasn't sealed. But it has to be sealed first with light spackle. You can also seal it with epoxy and microballon and it takes less than 5 oz. On each side to seal it.

Yeah I experimented with all that

Haha thanks for the tip. 👍
