Dude, you rip. But people ride wooden planks and plywood, why wouldn''t your handshaped board work? I started surfing before the machine shaped boards came on. You can ride anything you want. No such thing as a bad board, you just gotta learn to ride it. The first board I shaped was in woodshop, back when that was offered as an elective in Jr High, the 80's. The teacher said I could shape a PU for a grade so long as I wrote up a step by step plan and used all the shop hand tools. Some of my friends loved it, some hated it. The real question was, can you make it work? You did with yours. That was sick. It's a great feeling to get waves on something you crafted yourself. Way to go!
For another shaping challenge, try hotwiring a blank out of a big chunk of eps. It's kind of a trip to visualize it entirely in 3 dimensions vs a pre formed blank.
Maybe next board the fin reinforcement make the fiber glass go toward the nose in a daimond pattern? Seems like it buckled right at the reinforcement patch.
Definitely right. Found the limit of how light I could go with the carbon. Next one I’ll strengthen it up while trying to keep the same flex characteristics
I used a polyurethane blank. The carbon lay up allowed for a good amount of flex. I just need to have my next build strengthened a little bit more. I found the limit with how light I can go with carbon

Its truly mind blowing how good of an all around surfer Kai is. Like if you put your mind to it you could probably be on the CT. Keep shredding!
Wow that was so sick! Some mental airs! And broo that switch wave to Alley Oop would have been psycho😱🙌
Good job man ! Was definitely stoked on my 3rd board too. Even more so by the 50th

That was sick.
Remember in gleaming the cube when we saw the carbon fiber board?! That's so dope!😊
super sick video im excited to see the next one
Switch is super natural well done !!
Благтдарю за шикарную съёмку и мастерство сёрфинга 🏄♀️ это классно. Вы мастер своего дела. Всех благ 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🌊
Coming soon to the surf shop near you the Kai Lenny line of surfboards. 🤙🏼

Thank you for sharing
pretty good at having fun
“Actually kind of goes” is a good thing.
Where’s the first session in Bali I’m struggling to recognise it?
it must be so funny to craft your own board !!!!
Freaking AWESOMENESS
yep it works
ripped it from birth to retirement
Bro’s goffy or regular ? 😂 He air in the two
Keep that one for the wall. The first one of possibly a lifetime of shaping. If you need a wall to hang it on I can keep it safe just saying.
uploading two videos in two days🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

Doesn't carbon make the board too stiff and brittle ?
What kind of foam is it? EPS, epoxy or polyester resin?

@@KaiLenny98 Why not repair it?
@@KaiLenny98 Now time to perfect that ding repair Kai grom. 🤙. G⭐☘️? Sick board though, well done!
look out keith :)
Dude, you need to make your own surfboard line and sell them.
Best thing if it doesn't work the way you want Kia turn it into a bean bag for the groms!! 🤙. G⭐☘️🤙
Where do i order mine Kia grom?!?!🤙🤓
Edited on iMovie
KT -> KL 👀🔥
But the board is not the shape of a hand.
making your own board is sick fun. next time do the whole process yourself and see how it comes out.
😅😅😂😂❤❤❤😊😊😊
