Will my first board be surfable?
A little advice goes a long way. We strongly recommend taking the private shaping and glassing courses for the best possible experience in creating your first board. We work closely with you on your first board to ensure your board surfs they way you want it to.

Our private shaping lessons are 1:1 or 1:2 of hands-on instruction. Plan to spend 6+ hours shaping your first board and can be split up into 2 or 3 sessions if necessary. Outlines, foils, rockers, contours, rails, and glassing prep are covered as well as safety, tools, and shop etiquette.
