Ouch!!

Big chunk out of the nose after flying off the roof of a car.
New nose blocks made up and foam replaced,fabric inlay colour matched and zero filler.

DHD tail repair

Don't know why but i kinda like doing this sort of repair. Bit of a change from the endless rail dings and fcs plugs.

Another resin blurred phone camera pic, but new decal printed out for the bottom as the old one was trashed.

Are all couriers a bunch of monkeys?

So the board gets sent to me because the baggage gibbons had snapped the nose clean off.
No problem, new nose on and colour matched.
But look what the courier monkeys did to the tail in transit. I really don't treat my own boards too well, they spent most of their time sliding around in the back of the van bouncing off the sides but never suffer this kind off damage. Just what do these courier idiots get up to once you have handed over your hard earned cash.
Rant over , but it is amazing how many boards come through the workshop each week trashed by these MUPPETS!!!!!

Surftech nose snap

Surftech repair nose snap. Big old crack to the bottom skin.
HD foam and inner glass vacuumed in place.
Sanded back to shape and ready for outer glass.
Outer glass on and primed ready for 5 coats of gloss reinstate pinlines and 5 coats of laquer.
I was in such a rush to get this one done ready for a competition the next day that i totally forgot the finished pictures. I really should tidy those wires up under the table some day.

Firewire surfboard repair

Ahh, fin slices to boards are a sure sign that summer has finally arrived. Out with the sander..
New corecell and inner glass vacuumed on.
Outer glass lamination sanded back and ready to colour match.
Colour matched and epoxy top coat and ready to do battle with this summers crowds.

Surftech tidy up

Nothing structural just a good tidy up to get rid of badly done paint repairs and unsightly scratches. These boards will last years if keep on top of repairs and keep the water out.
We use industrial paints and laquers for a super solid finish. Good as new.

Naughty dog!!!!!!

He used to be quite well behaved and always stayed close to the workshop door but just lately has been taking himself on two hour missions across the fields. Obviously looking for something more amusing than watching me swearing at surfboards all day.
This was the little bugger after a good telling off. I had just spent the past hour wandering around the devon countryside trying to find him. Naughty dog!!!!

Firewire repair deck de-lam

Firewire with multiple deck de-lams injected with epoxy and vacuum bagged to get everything to sit down again. I swear my crappy phone pic's are getting more blurred each day. Probably something to do with the sticky resin build up over the lens.

Couple from today
