Jack's Rocket
Jack's board complete. The outdoor shots were before sanding and fin and leash plugs being put in, the others were just before collection.

Winged Quad Fish
My new board finished and ready to be surfed, just keeping my fingers crossed for some waves this weekend.
As usual with the boards I do for myself, it was a bit rushed and I forgot to sign it or put any dimensions on it. It's 6'2" down the stringer x 20" x 2 3/4.
I decided to experiment with using carbon fibre and discovered that it's quite tricky stuff. I sandwiched it between 2 sheets of glass but when I started wetting it out it started to spread as you can see from the photo.
Went with a Futures quad setup. Still finding it tricky getting all the air bubbles out when glassing the Futures boxes in though.
