DIY Customised Kit
The DIY Customised Kit
The DIY Customised Kit is recommended for experienced woodworkers or someone who has attended one of our in person courses and is familiar with wooden surfboard making.
As reflected in price, the DIY Customised Kit is the ‘bare bones’ for wooden surfboard making, allowing you to source extra materials yourself, use what you already may have or purchase extra items from our store. The provided parts are all rough sawn where extra prepping and machining is required. You will be making your board from scratch with more scope to customise your board and use the 1:1 paper plans as guide.

Paper plans/templates will be provided for the nose & tail blocks and for the rails, along with exact measurements for rib spacing
