Hi
Have just finished building a Balsa board it is based on a bodyboard template it is 54 x 22.5" and has a rounded nose and a little rocker, gone for a cresent tail and channels the same as a bodyboard rather than a skeg. The rails are soft egg shaped . This is my first post so hope pics come out _________________ Jerry Phillips |

Hi
My pictures never came out by the look of things, will have to try again this is not an easy sight to load pic,s on .It is based on Roy steward perimeter stringer design made from Balsa as Palowina is difficult to source in the uk. Why so many of your boards have skegs on, don,t your fins act as one? if a bodyboard can hold on a face of a wave without them hopefully my board will to , the channels are deeper along with the cresent. Hopefully be riding it soon on a artificial reef they have built just down the road from me, it is to shallow for standups at the moment _________________ Jerry Phillips |

A couple of things went wrong here. First, you need to post a valid image URL - normally an image file will end in GIF (or gif) or JPG (or jpg) - my Facebook images end in jpg. Secondly, the forum software's command for an image need to begin and end with brackets and in the instance above the beginning command does not have a close bracket "]" which accidently slipped to being next to the close image command "][/img]"
In Windows using your mouse, right click on the image and in Firefox use the "Copy Image Location" command; in Internet Explorer v8 you will need to get other assistance - the right click command on my PC is "weird" with a number of grayed out items such as "copy shortcut." _________________ rodNDtube
