Resin Tinting a Surf Board

Made a sweet little board for my friend's wedding gift. Surfed it in Oahu and she ripped!

Making Surfboards is a super challenging but rewarding experience. Its really cool and unique to make yourself a board, or in this case a friend, and then get the magical experience of surfing something you made.

Cheers to all the garage board builders out there! If you have any questions feel free to ask in the comments!
