Mini SUBs


The first boards to get processed will be Marlon and Noe's Stand Paddle Up Boards.

I measured each kid's shoulder to shoulder span, made a quick ratio from my own shoulder span to stable board width, and took that ratio and came up with a width for their boards.

I used Aku Shaper (free download if you didn't already know) to come up with a shape that wouldn't necessarily cut through the water, but give the kids more of a stable learning platform that they could take out in small waves one day. I printed out the templates - taped it up, cut it out and traced the outlines on the 6-1 pesci blanks.

More pictures of these "Mini-SUBs" later today
