Super cool dude! Glad I came across your channel. Not sure where you live at, but those waves you post look pretty fun. Love the unique designs too.. if you ever decide to do commissions I would love to order a board
Thanks! I'm not taking board commissions right now, however I am working towards getting some fins out in the near future. I've been working out some experiments with them and polishing my technique on some steps.
@@WaveWasters at least you have clips. That’s one of the reasons I don’t have clips of my shapes in action. I’d rather surf than get footage. Also I don’t want everyone laughing at my surfing 😅
@@callalilycollective Way more fun to just surf. haha I understand that, I almost didn't post this one because of it. I'm not an amazing surfer or shaper. But I figured with sharing build videos adding in some surfing here and there kinda completes the story of the builds.
I don't know much about coastal rowing boats. I'm more familiar with dory style boats. But I don't see why you couldn't use foam. If you used the right weight fibreglass. If you do a google search I'm sure you can find information on a boat building forum/group on how to make them.
More to it than just the outline but make sense kiteboards have similar shapes. I based a lot of the design on what I learned from designing snowboards almost 20 years ago. Both kiteboarding and wakeboarding have a lot of inspired design and manufacturing from the ski/snowboard industry. It's pretty cool how similar design can work
cool shape, look forward to more surf experimentation
Thanks! I have too many ideas to try and not enough materials haha
Love the experimentation dude
Thanks Chris! Wish I could afford to do more of it, its definitely my favourite builds to do.
You’re a legend Matt! Fun watching you have fun. 😃 Only been out once so far this year so far 😢 Hoping to get again soon. Cheers, John
Thanks John, hopefully you can get out and enjoy the warm water again soon!

@@WaveWasters Right on! Looking forward to it man
I don't surf yet this is still super interesting. Thanks!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
Been waiting to see how this board goes
Wish I had better clips but when the waves are good I'd rather just surf then take the GoPro out.

This is so sick
Thanks!
I’m eyeing those lefts....
Its a very deceiving wave but fun when its not so mellow
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Looks like a really fun board! Great design. What are the dimensions?
5'1.5" I can't remember the exact with but it was around 20" at the widest point.
Could you build a coastal rowing boat with foam?

20 year old kiteboard shape.
