Really nice looking board dude, looks fast

Spiral Vee is a V that starts subtly around your front foot placement when riding off the tail. The V should steepen towards the tail and as it increases you apply a twin concave along the V running out to the rail... The theory is that the V helps rail to rail whilst the dual concave creates lift.

Awesome job dude. Having now glassed 2 boards, and mine are really rubbish jobs, I have even more respect for those that can do a sharp job like these... Really great work dude

Thanks guy's, been putting in a lot of time over the last 2 years leaning new skills.
Ive been surfing for about 35 years, so I figured now I can surf and build my own boards for the next 35.

Hey all
just finished this 8'3 on Monday
The resin swirl was a first for me, but definitely not the last.
Actual board is 8'3 x 22 1/2 x 3 Single concave into a big double then flat out the tail.
Having a lot of fun shaping and building my own boards. Stay stoked ??
