5'1" "Shoe horn" is finished...

This was by far one of the coolest experiences Ive had! My first complete build! Not only did i shape it, but i laminated, hot coated, installed the fin system and sanded it! No one else touched this board in the building process! Ive shaped other boards and sent them off to glass, but i really wanted the whole enchilada with this one...

Im stoked! it actually was easier than i thought in some aspects, and way more time consuming in other areas. Im very happy with the results! My hat goes off to all those who do this on a daily basis! Especially the laminators! i think thats the most crucial part of the whole build! No margin for error!...


Ive ridden it about 5 times already, and with the propper fin setup, it really screams! But its very picky with what fins it likes...
YEW!
