Skimboard

I'll have pics in afew days, waiting for the paint to dry and to figure out what logos I'm gonna stick on it.

I originally planned on having a foam cored board, I had aquired some foam from a construction site, its closed cell, I figured it would work. I started sanding and apparently sanded too much, it snapped in half before I could start glassin.

So, the board is 1/8" ply but with the strength of atleast a 3/4" ply. It has 3 layers of fiberglass at the center of the rocker, and a fully wrapped rail (edges).

But yeah, pictures to come. It was my first fiberglass experience, I love it.
