We’ve made it to week four! This marks the shaping of my surfboard, which was a very stressful but rewarding process. I’m extremely grateful for the opportunity to learn from a professional like Jeff. Through learning these skills and techniques my appreciation for the art of shaping and designing boards has grown, and I hope that by experiencing it with me yours can too.

Week three started the shapping of one of my two forms. After some consideration and discussion with Jeff, we decided to begin with the skimboard first.

Friday, September 20th, I continued my work with Wave Zone. I began by discussing a plan of action with Jeff and Lisa in our weekly meeting. I presented a strategic plan for my project, outlining weekly goals and targets.

After approaching Wave Zone with a workshop concept that recognizes the art and craftsmanship of America’s board builders, I was granted the unique opportunity to learn the art of board shaping from the owner himself, Jeff Shinham.
