Blue Board...

Ok - so I decided to make a hullish design... This one is a 7'6" x 23 3/8" x 3" - wide point forward beastie of a funboard.

The board is made from Greenlight EPS foam (2lb density) with 3 layers top/bottom 3.7 oz S2 glass. The resin is RR CE for the lamination and RR KK for the fill coats.

Initial blank:


Anyway, I decided to do a blue resin tint on this one and that was the root of many issues. Unfortunately, my resin tint turned out blotchy and streaky - oh well, we shall chalk that up to learning.
