Hi everyone

Just wondered if anyone in the UK preferably in wales or Devon area has any like snapped longboards or other boards they would like to get rid of, i am looking to shape a few different fun boards to have sum fun with and thought that could be a good way to recycle and also save a bit on blanks. Would be willing to collect and pay for the right boards.

It is good to make friendly environment with this job saving a lot of wood and forests. surfing is important and damage happens so better to throw a surf board it id better to give it a new shape.

newportlongboard : I have to say to you please avoid this registered design named pocketboard to be found at pocketboard.co.uk . . . As it is my legal intellectual property with quite some cash involved I need, by law, to exercise what is called due diligence and ask you to not to accidentally make this shape ( copyright, company law and all that - no offence matey, I just have to write this ) :D

On a more upbeat note: When experimenting with board building remember - If using poly resin for fixing fin boxes the stuff gets realllllyyy hot, shockingly hot so have a cold wet cloth and plenty of water to hand to suck some heat out! :ninja:
