This video shows me making my own surfboard at home in my garage. I had about 21 hrs of video that got stripped down and sped up to 10 minutes.

If you are interested in shaping/glassing your own board check out www.greenlightsurfsupply.com where you can buy a kit that includes EVERYTHING that you need to build your own board, including instructional videos.

  • Hey! :) Mmm.. May I ask, on how you bended the board?

  • @pinkberrygurl21 You don't really "bend" the board. The stringer, or center strip of wood, is cut out of a plank of wood. When you cut it you outline a bend or rocker into it. Then you glue two pieces of foam to the stringer and sand the foam down to the stringer. That creates the bend. If I had diagrams that would help.

    Anyway the easier way is just purchase a blank from US blanks and then it comes with rocker built in already.

  • dude that was gnarly, what were the names of the bands used in the video, went well with the whole, surf lifestyle.

  • @airplanewindow First band was the beastie boys instrumental and the second song was Freedom by Josh Garrels.

  • do you sell the boards you make? where are you located?

  • @abarton02 I am located in NJ. I have sold a few but I don't really make them to sell them specifically.
