Handmade wooden fins, foam stain, channels, resin tint.. most shapers would block that caller! You accepted the challenge and absolutely nailed it. Well done.. The fin jig is ingenious and thank you for showing us how you shape your channels. Great set out and execution.
Thanks mate. 🤙
Glassed on fins are so cool. Thanks for making this video!
Bloody beautiful!
That is so satisfying to watch, amazing
Awesome as usual
A real beauty!
U R an Artist!

Thanks for Sharing your craft , great stuff and perfection .cheers Shaneo
Cheers Shaneo 🤘
I love this one! Very creative. Great video...
Thanks mate. 🤙
Beautiful piece of work. Dig the music tracks too.
Thanks 🤙
I loved watching this video. I’m just starting out trying to shape and this was awesome. And the board is beautiful. Thank you!!!
Thanks mate.
That's an amazing job, the colourway just perfect
Thank you! Cheers!
Old-head tip for those glass on fins from a guy who's been building and repairing since the days when all boards had glass ons. When doing your patches up the sides of the fins, orient your cloth on a 45 degree angle to the base of the fins rather than at 90 degrees the way you did. Your fins will be less likely to crack at the base that way. I'd probably do a thicker piece of fin rope as well. Great build video. Cheers.
Thanks for the advice and kind words
This board looks good👍
Thanks 🤘
Your video’s have brought me back to shaping after 12yrs. Thank you for all the excellent content. May need to thank you with a board order😎
No need to thank me mate. Just enjoying the content is thanks enough 🤙
@@Shrednaught Cheers 🍻 brother
Love the videos, always checking for a new one! Hahaha
Thanks man. 🎉
Been waiting for another video, and this was worth the wait. That thing looks sweet dude.
Yew! Yeh I’ve had a bit going on sorry man.
@@Shrednaught no stress brother. Is this board for you to shred on?
Na not mine. For the neighbour. Absolute frother
So goooood
🤙
Damn, that is one fine looking board! Great job, thanks for sharing your skills. I have only made three boards so far. All of them with very simple bottoms. Thinking about trying something with channels. You make it look too easy.
Thanks man 🤙 I do have a video on shaping and another on glassing channels if you wanted to see how I do them. Might help a bit 🤷♂️
that was epic as
Thanks dude 🤙
Killer work as always man! Almost finished building my shaping bay in the new shed, 3 blanks waiting to go.
Yew! You gotta be pumped to get into those blanks!
@@Shrednaught haha tell me about it. My urbnsurf graveyard needs backfilling
Proper beaut!
Superb
Lindo trabalho à moda antiga, a prancha ficou linda, boa ondas ao dono... Aloha...
Greate Man... 👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍
🤙
I'm making me a jet bottom soon. Seen videos to motivate my self! 🏄
Sounds like a challenge. Good
Luck yew! 🤙
Hey man, your shaping skills are amazing , but I also appreciate the little comedy you sprinkle in like at ending when you stood by the door after you closed it and re opened, genius
Haha thanks mate. At least you get it.. 😅
Another beautiful work of art. I’m always curious how long these take. It’d be interesting to know how long each stage takes, maybe even the curing times.
Thanks 🤙 it’s a lengthy process for sure. I don’t really keep time of but I’d like at least a week for a board to not feel rushed
Great vid as usual!! Love your jigs for installing glass on fins! Would be awesome to have the ends possible to setup for different cants. Cheers man, Milos / Apatyka
Yeh man. You could cut multiple cants or I was just adding double sided tape onto the end of the jigs to extend the Cant degree by 1*
Waouuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Sweet Candy Man. Well hello from Belgium
Thanks man 🤘
Good job bro🤙
Thanks man 🤙
Very Nice Board, and your process is pretty interesting, awesome work. looks like a good and fast ride. Cheers from Baja Bro.
Thanks mate. 🤙🤙
He'll yeah!!!!!!!
As an old 70s' glasser, my favourite on-foam swirls were blue and yellow=green
Beautiful combination
thank you senior for the information and good morning and happy sunday indonesian time for you blessings are always abundant in every innovative idea of your work and effort i will try to reduce all processes in this video
Thank you for the kind words 🤙
@@Shrednaught you're welcome again
Routing the plan shape is something I always thought about have only made 15 boards I never had any trouble getting things nice so never bothered nice to see someone actually hand shaping without a cnc good one from nz
If you get your templates perfect then every single outline from that template comes out perfect from the router. It’s definitely not essential but I find it saves me a bit of time on the shape.
Cheers mate, appreciate it 🤙
@@Shrednaught yes I agree me and my friends made our own boards back in the 70s one of the guy shaped.his rails straight of the hand saw the board went well but it looked horrible hay keep it up mate I am taking it all in for my next board
@@Shrednaught awesome vid, clearly going to do my channel better. Also, been looking into routing the outline but which bit do you use?
You can get surfboard specific routing bits but I just bought a straight shank from eBay. Think it’s about 3 1/2 inches from memory. Just have a google mate, shouldn’t be too hard to find 🤙
noiiiiice
👏👏
thanks
have you ever watched the JC shaping video? I rode for him back in the 90's, and he made the most amazing magic boards ever.... never got a bad board from him, they were all magic...
Yeh I’ve watched all his videos. Absolute master 🤘
I used to have a bunch of old big surfboards that were clark foam and I always meant to strip the glass and make a new board, but never did...
Hi sir big fan of your vids .I would like to get into shaping but I don't really know what essential beginner tools I need to get into it. Could you make a video about what esstiential tools a person could use to start shaping and some basic materials needed to shape a surfboard. Keep the lekker vids coming bru. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thanks man 🤙 yeh I’ll see if I can whip a video up on the basics sometime in the future. Yew!
Looking to get into shaping, was wondering where the best place would be to get blanks?
sweet, another build!
thanks for the excellent work / videos!
p.s. you should do a merch shop :p
your Logo would look sick on a Hoodie
Thanks man 🤙
Yeh it’s definitely something I want to do. I did start and then the international shipping killed my enthusiasm but I’ll revisit the idea soon I think.
@@Shrednaught sweet!
yea international shipping sounds gross... if you're in need of a free tech guy, feel free to say hi
Yew! Thanks man I’ll keep it mind.
Awesome! Thanks for doing these! With the resin for the lamination, did you also make a clear resin batch and add that after the green swirls? Or was the resin from the green swirls enough to do the lamination? Also, which brand of acrylic sealer do you use and do you use gloss, satin or matte? Thanks for your time!!
I did use clear with the green mixed through it. I think the brand is called crommulin and it’s satin but I’d prefer matte I just couldn’t find it at the time
You are talented. I used to love trying to catch a peep of Spider Murphy shaping boards when I was a lighty through the backdoor for Safari Surf boards here in S Africa..What cloth are you using on the fins. I see you wet the rovings then put cloth half way up and then what looks like fine see through wax paper?
Thanks mate 🤙
I glass the fins first with 6oz and then when I glass to the board I use the rovings and 6oz to the tip and then 6oz just half way up. I think what you’re seeing is just the glass already wet out. I wet the patches out prior to laying them up the fins as I found it’s easy to get them done this way
Awesome as always, when are we gonna see some merch! Would love to support.
Thanks mate. Fingers crossed sometime this year 🤞🏻 the hardest part is the shipping
you do such incredible boards, my dream is to have one of yours. I have just broke my only one one month ago :,)
Thanks mate. Aw spewing about your board. Guess it gives you a good chance to learn how to fix it 😁
When adding colors are you mixing the color both with the epoxy resin and hardener? If so in what order ? Can you do a video on that .
Going to start my 1st board build .
Yea I'm old gonna be scary lol. TIA
Top work Mitch. Tell the crowd how many hours start to finish a board takes.. 😂 (not including curing time)
And have you ever hot coated the deck just after the deck lam has gelled. I'm a big fan of it now.
Too many hours..
Yeh I’ve done it. I like to do a cheater coat and then do the fill coat on that as it’s gelling
I love your art, but can u please do more vids of you surfing the boards you make? It would just like satisfy me along with a few other ppl I would imagin
I would love to. Unfortunately I don't have a photog friend and they charge like a wounded bull...
Hey man, love the videos. I was wondering what you use for your final seal coat? Are you rolling on resin or something else? Cheers
It’s a clear acrylic sealer used for concrete floors. It’s not the same as a gloss coat as it won’t fill in pin holes etc but it does leave a nice silky finish
Love the work, how come you did a yellow resin foam stain instead of just pouring the yellow and green together when laminating?
Mostly because of the channels. I didn’t want to mud the yellow and green together too much. It wasn’t entirely necessary but 🤘
Very great job bro! Do you prefer works with eps or pu? Why?
Thanks for the videos!
Both have their pros and cons. Personally Pu is easier for myself so that’s what I prefer. But I always go back and forth between the two as for my favourite
Wow, what a beauty!, Your shape skills inspired me. How long is the time between the foam stain and the glassing? It’s completely cured or almost? Best regards from the Baltic Sea!
It’s cured hard. A few hours at a minimum
At 2;45 I really like the look of that flexi-block. Is that from car body work shops? Very interesting. The song: is that
Kylie Monogues sister? I used to go out with her back in the 80’s Not Kylie, but the sister……………..
It’s a concave / convex sanding block. You can find them at good online surfboard shaping suppliers.
Not sure who the singer is but that’s a pretty cool claim!
what are your tools and where do i get a pice of foam this big??
Hey mate, was that yellow a tint or pigment? Cheers
Hello again mate, can you tell me how you paint just the rails ? Make a resin color selling on the blank or it’s after lamination ? Cheers 🍻
You can use a foam stain of resin and resin tint or use a compatible paint either on foam or after sanding your fill coat
Also what grits of sand paper did you use to blend the rails?
Whilst shaping I use 120 - 240 gauze on the rails
Thanks for great video+
What is the yellow thing that you pour on surfboard ? resin with yellow tint or acrylic color?
if i use eps foam and pour resin with tint for sealing and coloring in the same time , Do you think it gonna work? thanks 🤘
Resin and tint. It’s probably won’t work that well with eps/epoxy. And you’d need to sand the entire board to get the resin to bond. That would leave patchy colour. I’d probably do a spray if you were looking for colour on the foam 🤙
Love your vids. The little yellow sander, is it an orbital or disc sander?
Thanks mate. It’s a mirka dero 5 orbital.
Love bottom color swirl. Did you just use green shades of pigment on bottom glass lamination or did you use some clear resin as well. Trying to understand how bottom stayed mostly yellow with just streaks of green?
Pretty much. Foam stain the yellow on the board then did a resin swirl with a little green in a pot of clear resin. 🤘
@@Shrednaught Thanks for response!
Man your videos are just savage man keep them coming. Do you seal the board in any way before you lam?
I just glassed the bottom of my second board but first time with the catales resin and i was not fast eught so it started to gum up on me so i had a few air bubbles to sand out. So now do i just glass the top and fill in my sanding?
also i tryed to tint the resin and i added way too much I got sooooo much to learn but I am having fun in the shead.
thank you for the videos and the advice.
PS keep telling people about the buy you a coffee page. Every other youtuber says it every video
Thanks man. I don’t seal my boards but others do seal eps. It’s a personal preference. In regards to your glassing issue if you have any photos it would help me answer the question. Jump on my Instagram and send them through there and I’ll have a look and let ya know what I think.
@@Shrednaught I will try to install Instagram to post photos but I am not a tech head.
Do you do rails/ruck by eye or have lines or measurements?
I do have line for measurements. It’s just that I very lightly scratch the foam ( not draw) with the measurements so it’s hard to see on the vids
Sir, did you sand the board after a first coat? Or just put another layer of cloth...I'm thinking if it will delaminate if I didn't sand the board...
Is that yellow color that you put on the bottom first, paint or pigmented resin? And if it's paint, what kind?
Pigment resin. Just a foam stain mate
Hi ! I have a question please. Could you give us the name of your spray glue you are using please ? 🙂
Where do you get your blanks
Hey man, love all of your vids, really clear and concise and the end results are beautiful. Quick question for you, when you measure out your rocker and find that there is too much, how can you reduce it? Is it a case of taking more material from the middle and bottom of your blank? Cheers amigo!
That’s a hard one to deal with, without knowing the exact details. Short answer is yes.
Thanks bud 🤙🏻I'm looking at getting and hand shaping a longboard blank and wanted to see how easy it would be to flatten then rocker that comes with the blank, I surf pretty weak and small east coast waves that come in from the North Sea so dont want anything with a heap of rocker in it.
Ok nice. Depends on your blank availability but you should be able to find a stock blank or custom order one with your rocker. It’d be easier than trying to shape it out.
Ha yeah, that would make a lot more sense. Cheers, keep the videos coming! They’re a great resource 👍🏻
WHoah! what are the pros and cons of foam stain vs. spray paint? can you do a full foam stain deck and bottom? Please do a polished board next. Cheers!
With a foam stain with resin it’s going to be a lot more compatible with the resin used for glassing. Gives the foam some extra strength over spray paint as well. Spray does give you less of a chance of messing it up. You can definitely do full foam stains.
@@Shrednaught Thanks! just noticed that you used posca to write the dims, just wondering if it will stay that long or eventually it will fade?
It’ll stay if you clear coat over the top
@@Shrednaught Thanks!
Hi, could you please tell me what kind of paint you are using on the foam blank before glassing , Thanks. :)
It isn’t paint. It’s a foam stain with a pigmented resin. Just normal lam resin catalysed
Do you shape for a living? Or just a hobby? Love your work!
Mostly hobby but I have been going at it full time the last year. Unfortunately I had to get a real job this year so it’s back to hobby
Hi did you use yellow pigment or tint? Pigment being opaque tint being transparent
Pigment from memory
what kind of ruler did you use for the fins placement
Fin placement ruler. Can be bought almost every surf supplier shop.
Hey mate! What kind of router bit do you use to cut the foam from the template? I can't find anything longer than 2.5 inches.
All my blanks are in the 3". Love your videos!!! I will be making some boards soon!
Hey Gordon,
It’s just a straight cut 1/4 inch shank. I just run the non cutting edge along the template. I found mine on eBay from overseas so have a look on there. If you can’t find one and wanted to splash out I know there are surfboard specific ones available although they are expensive. Shapers online in Australia have them. Good luck 🤙
@@Shrednaught thanks Shreddy !! I'll keep you posted on my build. Learning a lot from you videos!!
Yew!
What is it that you always roll with a roller onto all your boards before wet sanding? Gloss?
Clear acrylic sealer
Hey man love the channel - been catching up on ur vids. Sick board! Just wondering what kind of paint you used for the yellow onto the foam? Churz :)
Yew! Thanks dude. That was just a yellow foam stain. So standard poly resin with yellow pigment mixed into it
@@Shrednaught It looks rad! Would you stil catalyse the resin for the foam stain?
Yeh mate. You still kick the resin.
Cheers fella! Looking forward to the next vid 🤙
Tasty build. The router bit you use to cut your outline - that's got a top bearing on it right? What's the cutting depth? Need to find a bit like that!!
It doesn’t but it would definitely be so much better if you can find one that does. It’s a out 3 1/2 - 3/4 long cutting length from memory. I found it on eBay. You can purchase surfboard specific ones but they’re in the hundreds of dollars
@@Shrednaught gotcha! I don't trust myself without that top bearing haha
I wonder if you could add a bearing to your bit? That's probably what I'll be trying
You definitely can. I’ve just never had an issue so I’m kinda lazy haha.
What kind of sander are you using?
Mirka deros 5
What bit do you use to route your outline?
Just a straight cut 1/4 shank 3 1/2 inch long
Is this board for big waves? looks sweet
Thanks. Yeh it’s made for better surf.
Hey
Great work and a great video.
What do you use for colouring the foam ?
Thanks 🤙
I did a foam stain with the yellow. So just yellow pigment mixed into standard surfboard lam resin and catalysed
@@Shrednaught Thanks, wasnt sure if it was resin as it seamed rather thin, thought for a moment that it might be acrylic paint 🤔🌊🩳🎄
Was a warm day. Resin was definitely flowing better
Hey brother ! Can u explain what chemical adhesive do you use ? Or epoxy or something please ...
Sure. It’s a spray glue. You can use it very sparingly because if you use too much it can react to the resin. Just a little mist to hold the glass in place
@@Shrednaught thank you brother ! Can u explain with youtube video ?
Glue the fins to the board? Why not just add fin boxes to make fins interchangeable?
There’s a few positives and negatives to glass on fins. Glass ons add a different feel to a board. A more connected experience to plug in fins. Typically when doing glass ons I’ll make the fins to the board or board for the fins. Negatives are the obvious.. can’t take them out to travel.
Hi, where can I find the cutter for the trimming machine?
EBay mate 👍
Link? I can not find.. Thanks
What did you use to spray paint the board and what kinda of paint did you use
Not sure I used spray paint on this build mate? I did a foam stain with resin.
@@Shrednaught oh ok gotcha Do you have any recommendations on what spray paint to use to spray foam cause I’m trying to do some yellow rails
If it’s on top of finish coat then any paint. But if it’s on the foam and you’re going to glass over it then you will need a specific type. Where abouts you located?
@@Shrednaught I’m in the us
Ok cool. I’m pretty sure molowtow do a water based acrylic spray you could use. Just ask the person selling it to make sure before committing to the purchase.
How many inches up are the twin fins placed?
10 1/2
These are uprights with a trailer though so take that into account when doing you’re own 🤙
@@Shrednaught That’s similar to my MR copy with a trailer for insurance. I like it so will go similar. Thanks mate.
Yeh MR is very similar set up. You can move forward or back depending on set up or length but somewhere in that general area will get you good results 🤙
Yo how much that go for??
That was for a good mate so the price was just material costs +10%
🤙
It’ll be cool if the bottom is the top
how much does a plank cost?
Depends on where you are located but here they cost me around 150-200 depending on the size and style of blank.
@@Shrednaught from Brasil
What would happen if someone opened the door......!

hey shrednaught im trying to get into surfing and haven't got a board and am looking for one just one problem i dont have much money i would absolutely love it and appreciate it a-lot if you could make me a board i know a-lot of people probably ask you for this and im just going to be another but if you could i would be much appreciative i really love your stuff and hope you see this.
if you did make a board for me could it be 6,4 37 to 41 litres please shrednaught please
from maurice
If let’s say i want to buy one of you’re boards (like costume made for my needed measurements), could u contact with me?
Sorry mate I’m not doing any for sale at the moment 🤙
Twin or Quad !!! Sorry, that stable fin is not necessary !!! Other else, pretty nice board !
Whilst I tend to agree with you, the person paying gets to decide. The guy surfs some serious juice and without a stabiliser in the twin set up he said he tends to lose the back end when it gets over head.
Cheers mate 🍻
@@Shrednaught Get it ! The customer is always right !
@ivonpacheco you can lead a horse to water but you can’t always make it drink.. 😅
@@Shrednaught Nice, pretty nice ! Yah man, the real world !😂

Hey mate what's the reason for the yellow resin foam stain instead of just using yellow and green resin in one container when laminating.
Love the vids
