I've been putting more time into No.32
Yesterday I used the planer and dialed in the rocker. I also looked at the divynicell blocks and poly urethane blocks plotting out how I'm going to mount the blocks (top to bottom decks - I'll cut out the whole EPS section and Gorilla glue in the higher density blocks). I am going to build this board to jump.
And today I used the surforms and got the rough shaping done.
This is the bottom deck - its kinda hard to see with the shadows and the lack of contrast - but I added shallow concaves to promote lift on this one. These are not deep at all, and with this board being dual purposed as a wing board and a prone Foil Drive board, I want to see if this adds to the performance.
I kept the nose wider for more surface area, which I feel will counter the slightly the thinner thickness.
Here is the board with the bottom deck up. Square rails and flat tail for release and speed generation.
Today I also got through the 80 grit rough sanding. Tomorrow when the sun is out, I'll go through the finer sanding screens and dial in the shape.
