How a MellowWave surfboard
is made, we take you through the board building process.
The entrance looking in to the
shaping bay where MellowWave surfboards are hand crafted by Steve
James.
This is where you
would pick your board up from, Steve will show you around the bay and
explain how your board was made (if your interested of course) you
should leave with a real understanding of your new MellowWave surfboard.

Step 1
How to make a
surfboard
This page will take you
from a rough surfboard blank to a shaped board ready for glassing.
We start by power planing the blank
down to the required thickness.
You may notice how the lights are angled
to shine across the blank, this is so the shaper can see any shadows
which will help get the board smooth. |

Step 2 Steve is now marking out the template
line using the dimensions required by the customer, as you can see the
order sheet is on the blank!
We have many templates and can do all
shapes. |
