Re: Credit where credit is due (rant).

I credit my dad. back in 1960 my brother and I asked my dad for money to buy a $25 surfboard he said no! so he gave us a sheet of 1/2" plywood and a jig saw and said make one. we made two 4'X2' boards and painted them with house paint. had the best summer of my childhood. THANKS DAD

my brother did that for my business cards. he make a good liveing with his photos

Re: hello from a new paipoboard rider

with your ply wood I would sand it smooth then put about 3 to 4 coats of spar varnish will be ok for about a year or so :)
