Jumbos BIG board

Talk about big boys and big boards, this is my mate Jumbo’s new board! I Have actually been making him boards since he rode 6’8” shortboards...nowadays he weighs around 150 kilos now (or 330+ pounds for you Americans). the board is 8’6”x 26”x 3 3/4” MONSTER MULLET. i scaled the shape perfectly using our APS3000 software. i then cut the blank from EPS (esky foam), i glued a bending ply stringer in and then cut the shape with the APS shaping machine we use everyday. we glassed it with 2x6 oz on the bottom and 2x6oz ,1x4 oz and a strip of 6oz carbon on the deck. all epoxy resins of course! the fins are foiled from ply and glassed on. i went for a quick surf with him on friday arvo when he picked it up and was stoked to see him catch a couple nice ones in tiny Tugun beach break waves. Jumbo managed a couple of good turns and a cutty too! He commented that he would have struggled to catch those waves on his 10” longboard let alone turn and cutback or throw the board at the lip! i will try and get a couple action shots in the next few weeks and give you an update... CUSTOMS FOR CUSTOMERS. thats what we do.....
