six foot seven foot eight foot punch!

This is a board I designed and made for myself about a year ago, I call it the Banana Boat.  I try to design boards for my specific needs, being an older guy (60) who needs a little extra paddle power, surfing crowded L.A. point breaks, but not always wanting to ride a longboard.

Its 8' long and 22" wide and 3 5/8" thick, a wide squash tail, with a quad fin setup.  Fat board, lots of volume out to the rails, slight concave in nose, flat through middle, slight double-concave V in tail, flattening out at the very back.

US Blanks 8-2 A "red" density, glassed heavy for strength.  Fat rails with a chine or bevel "release" edge along bottom.  The artwork is a picture of Carmen Miranda I painted right on the foam.  It was glassed with Resin Research epoxy.
