The 'lightbulb' 5-11 tunnel finned hollow wooden surfboard
Finished !It's fast, handles well, and the fin holds in nicely.
The 'Lightbulb' hollow wooden sidecut surfboard
Another wide ultra thin shortboard. The 'Lightbulb' is a cousin to the 'Gobstopper' being an inch and a half narrower at 27 wide, and a tad shorter. The Lightbulb has a wider tail and subtle sidecut in the planshape.
Construction is 6 layer parallel profile, with double laminated paulownia deck and double diagonal internal frames. The rails are a continuous round 50/50 in cross section, except for the squaretail.
She's flat in the tail rocker with a prounounced nose lift, and will soon sport a big tunnel fin with leading edge channels.
Here's the laminating process, showing the double diagonal frames and the z axis ties which join the frames.
