Surfing + Board Sports

It started with skateboarding and surfing.  My first experience was the summer between high school and college thanks to my friend who invited me out.  Since then I have been hooked and catch waves every chance I get.  I prefer to catch swells on a long board rather than attempt aerials on a short board.

Unsurprisingly it didn't take long for me to set my sights on creating my own surfboard.  Years before I started surfing I came across a Popular Science article about cardboard surfboards.  These were made as an experimental prototype.  Cardboard slats were slotted together to form a honeycomb core that was then wrapped in fiberglass.  The result was a surprisingly viable surfboard that was easy to make and has a unique aesthetic.
