  • how do you put the rocker in your board

  • @macleanja

    I design my boards in my CAD system and have them cut to my specifications. All I have to do is the final sanding and shaping of the rails. I sell the boards for $65.oo a blank. these come with the rocker in the front and back already in place.

  • i provide all of my sources in my manual which can be purchased.

  • It's that easy..... with some time and preperation you will be making your own skimboards right away. You need to get the foam right. No less that 2# styrene. 3# will work better and is easier to sand. typical 1# styrene is too soft. it will work but you will have issues with sanding it and it beading apart.

    FYI - I can sell you a starter kit. I also sell a hand written manual with instructions for $25.oo

  • what kind of resin ? of resin research

  • @fenderstar11 - I use Resin Research. I used to Use Resing Research 2000 with a fast activating hardner. I now use Resin Research Kwik Kick.

    goodluck

see all

  • random nerf gun guy at 3:28

  • did somebody hear the guy whispering brissle when he was showing the brush?

  • how do u put the rocker into to bored

  • what all comes with your starter kit?

  • And on a side not, do you provide links for acquiring the various supplies required for making on of these skimboards?

  • I'm totally down to do this. Moneys tight right now so I want to make sure I'm making the right investment, you know? this looks very legitimate though. You mentioned that if need be, you could separate the foam skeleton and implant stringers for added support. Do you have an instruction manual/video that would encompass that process? I'm 180lbs normally so I want to buy/make a good first board that can support me enough to drift out to shore. On the Massachusetts coast we don't got much to ride
