Surfboard Design- how surfboards work
Old Hawaiian surfboard had up to 200 pounds? Wow! :o It’s a good thing there were no leashes, you coul say goodbye to your leg.
this website is the shit. It helped me so much. I just did an informative essay with a speech based on the history of surfboards. I couldnt find anything i needed till i found this bomb ass site. Not only did it have shit loads of info on old boards it got into modern to. I ended up doing really well on both the essay and speech so thanks.
who invented the surf board
Lisa, I think the surfboard is so old that you can’t pin it to one person, especially because there are no written records from that time.
right, when Captain Cook visited Hawaii (1777) surfing was already in full swing :) and that is the first written record of surfing itself, first surfboard must had been invented long before that.

Are any surboards so mass produced that they just slap 2 pieces together and call it a board. I understand there are handmade boards and those that have been “shaped” by computer. Is there another way? Trying to compare technigues for a project.
i learned a lot of nothing on this site thanks… i guess… :p
There is a growing movement out there for more sustainable surfboard building materials to cut down on the pollution generated by the traditional board building methods. In short, people are going back to wooden boards, but made by modern methods. The “Tree to Sea” forum is one place to see what I’m talking about. There are various methods pioneered by people such as: Rich Blundell, Paul Jensen, Roy Stewart, Tom Wegener, and others. Some builders are using balsa, cedar, red wood, pine, and paulownia woods built around a ribbed frame and then oiled or fiber-glassed over.

What a flash back! I was the Malibu trash guy from 1968 to 1971.
Great years, I remember O’ Neil showing up with that leash, caused quite a commotion. Also, remember the Auzies coming with their V-bottoms. In those days I Knee boarded the 3rd pt. Everyone was pretty cool… I was the guy who kept the beach clean.
