Amazing. We all need to appreciate how much artistry/hard work making a decent board is, before we start trying to haggle £50 off in the shop.

[@BendheimBoards]

Agreed and well said

@@BendheimBoards whats a good price for board for beginners?

I’d say get a used board or soft top. Short board used you can find between $100 - $250

Nice board! I just finished making my own board. Haven’t had it in anything good yet but so far I think I really like it. I paint acrylic on the foam. Much easier than tint but tint look sweet. I learned something watching how you taped the pin line using the narrow tape you pull off. Thanks.

[@BendheimBoards]

Awesome! It’s very gratifying to surf a board you made. I really like the translucent look with tinted resins. Thanks for watching!

Wow my dude. The overwhelming audience of non surfers you have here is impressive. Sick shape. Usually been shying away from the gloss coats but will do on my next build. Thing is shiny!

Thanks man! Pros crank them out fast but I’ve got a day job and kids so I only work a few hours every few days after putting my kids to bed. So it takes me a long time, over a month for a board. Filming also slows me down. It’s just my creative outlet.
