I used to shape boards. I’ve met up with Tom twice. Excellent human being. He’s super stoked on all things surf. I’ve watched and read some of his info over the past 15 or 39 yrs. I even had him build me an oil skin blank. As far as soft rails go I always found them to be much easier rail to rail. Tom is a legend. He will probably end up inventing some amazing new thing with old technology like an oiled paulownia hollow tow in foil board with some ancient twist. He will be in the surfing history books. Much respect.

Your design makes sense to this old man. No computer......just feel it’s perfect.

I made a single fin about 6 months ago. The rails through the tail turned out to be softer than I'd originally planned. No hard edge. The board turns very well, maintains speed throughout. I'm now thinking this soft tail rail mistake was a blessing in disguise! Thanks for the video Tom!

The oil works on resined surfboards as well, coconut is the best.

Thanks for the video, it would have been good to end it with some footage of it being ridden.
