Follow along as I show the process for building a surfboard from scratch. This video covers all of shaping. In following videos I will go into glassing, fin boxes and sanding.
Nice, what I like to do is fade out the tuck to the nose as well, similar to what you do on the railband and the tuck towards the edge (back). I found that as soon as I did that my rails at the nose stopped looking like 50/50 rails towards the nose all the time.
I always trace a fish tail template with a keel fin, leaves a nice shape. Smaller swallow tails you can just use a smaller fin like a quad rear or thruster fin etc i like cutting it with a jig saw as well
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Shaped my daughter a board 8 or so years ago and glassing was the hardest part for me. Only one ive done. Loved this video and have the bug to do another one. Off to watch the glassing video you did now
awesome work dude- love it. I am a way worse shaper than you but the only comment i have is a tip i saw from Kazuma surfboards , which is using a full- length stanley knife blade for foam rail cuts... especially in tight spots like the fishtail, i like it as its super precise and you can even kind of bend the blade a little for curvture. keep up the vids, so awesome!!

Good luck! Glassing is always difficult but the most fun once you get the hang of it!
