Hey everyone, im building my own custom wakeskate. I building it out of a little over 1/8 inch birch. ive got my design down but i do have a few questions.

How many layers of wood should i use?

What kind of epoxy should i glue the layers together with and how much?

What kind of sealant should i use to keep it from getting waterlogged? a can of urethane?

What brand of skating griptape has the best durability for wakeskating?

Thanks

Any tips would be great
