Couple pics from the hardrive from Leven a couple years ago. Seems a shame to hide em' away so I'II add some pics in between posts on board building.

5'10 keel fish

This is the first board I have ever made, board number one, 5'10" x21" x2.5" single to Vee with Lokbox Zippys fins. After weeks of research going through endless threads on Swaylocks, watching mind numbing video clips on YouTube and running my phone bill up by yapping to a mate who knows a bit, this was the end result.....
It surfs ok but not great. I reckon I thinned it out a little too much and looking at it now it has too much rocker.
ALOT learnt in making this board though.
