Hi Jay Bagus , stoked you found this video useful , and yes we will be posting more of these informative design videos , and some live broadcasts where you all can ask specific questions and we will answer . Soon as well some love shaping broadcasts from my shaping room !
Yes Trexinvert ! So many design factors in each board , and so many combinations of design features that can effect how a surfboard performs for each surfer , it’s endless ! That’s what makes it so interesting for me even after 30 years working on surfboards , as there is still more to learn and try , I learn something new every day with surfboard design .
shaped my first board over the summer and this explains why i feel i need to keep weight on the front foot to keep the board balanced, had the deepest point of the concave far to far forward. Thought it might have been just too much volume up front and not wide enough tail but you have given a brilliant explanaiton of concave design and its relation to the other design elements in the board, infromation i have not been able to find for else where. Would be great to see more videos with Andy, and will be using the advice for the board im gonna make over chirstmas
Great Bàdr ! Glad your learning from these vids Mo’e and I are putting together. We will do more, as well look out for our upcoming live broadcasts where viewers can type in specific design questions, and we will answer them best we can .
This was super helpful! I definitely wish I had watched this video (and the others) before I had purchased my latest board. At least now, I understand why it has certain deficiencies in certain surf. Keep it up! Mahalo!!
Awesome video! There isn't enough intermediate - advance information on surfboard design out there! After 10 years of surfing and reading this finally explains bottom contours in a way I can understand!
The numbers never lie. If you want a good rocker you need to have the correct curve through the board. The tip of tail and nose is not the b all and end all. The rocker a foot from the nose and tail is more critical. Vee slows a board down . if you gave a pro surfer a board with vee he would throw it in a skip. Of course if its a gun thats a different story.....
Great info. So if you lay the board on a flat table or a straight edge nose to tail. More or less on a general wave and a wave like Supers jbay... How big should your flat spot be on each board, for each type conditions?
Faster moving water is at a lower pressure due to the Bernoulli Effect. This creates suction rather than lift. It's why concave helps lock rails into faces.
I like his questions but please let the actual shaper speak on what is in his own mind like he was just about to tell us about not wanting breaks then u changed the subject 🤦♂️

So useful! please more of this! tails, noses, rails, fins, foams etc thanks

pro tip: watch movies at flixzone. Been using it for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Boden Arjun Definitely, I have been watching on flixzone} for years myself :)
@Boden Arjun Definitely, been using flixzone} for since december myself :D
@Boden Arjun yea, have been using Flixzone} for months myself =)
Wow. There's a lot involved in the board geometry. It's fascinating how each detail will affect the surfer or how he/she can surf with it. Keep on.

please do more it's very informing, thanks

Damn, this guy is awesome. I want a board from him!
You Guys are Lucky to have Rain. We have not seen Rain in Four Years.
I wonder, still I wonder,who'll stop the rain?
Great advice and knowledge of surfboard design.
#1 vlog ever
Thanks for making the video. Super helpful 👌
So many good insights thanks guys!!
Andy the Mad Scientist! Love these videos Chris and Andy. Super informing.

Thanks Sean ! Pura Vida
Excellent! Comprendo mas ahora.
Que bueno! Hay mas que viene ! Gracias
Epic video dude! Super helpful.
can you do types of fun setups and there benefits like single fins, thrusters, etc
Nice info

Completely unrelated but do you still advise investing in bit coin or any other crypt o currency?
More pls!!
More to come MG , for sure ! Thank you
whats a good entry rocker fot 2 to 6 foot waves ?????
Where is Maxim concave, on the centre of board or in front of fins? Thanks
Any benefit in having concave in a Mal?
Concave in the nose creates drag while padding.unless that concave has the proper blend.
Ayyyy notiiii
I like his questions but please let the actual shaper speak on what is in his own mind like he was just about to tell us about not wanting breaks then u changed the subject 🤦♂️
Yeah, too much concave like Maurice Cole boards :)
Woodglut has a lot of plans to choose from.
In reality, how many of us could guess the bottom or tail after riding it?
