paipo 43.5 narrow nose

#1

Unread post by asier esnal »

with how bad the previous paipo has gone and seeing the great work that makes nomastomas, I have made a paipo with much narrower nose, also it will be thinner than the previous ones, simple concave below and flat

I've already started to shape it. I have doubts with the keels. I found a very special fins a model of 3D fcs for longboard and sup: FCS 3D Red Tip Large

I do not know if to put 2, 4 fins or this rare thing and to put it, I do not know if it would be 2 + 1 as central or directly this ends alone,

the bad wind days works very well, stabilizes the whole table. I want to take advantage is a large keel, huge Base: 158 mm height: 146 mm, it's a shame to have it thrown

Has anyone laminated biaxial fiberglass 45 x 45? Will it give more flexibility than normal fiber?

I've been looking through the forum but I have not found anything

Jeff Quam knows a lot about fiberglass. Send him a PM asking to reply on the forum. I don't think he regularly lurks.

I'm looking for alternatives to make the types very quickly, I have many shapes in my head and I do not want to have to put fiberglass, polish ... I'm not looking for a good finish.
I do not look for terribly complex constructions, neither do I need to be very durable in years

I have access to xps plates, but I can paste ... I also have a store near home with corecork an eva. I have a vacuum pump, but I do not want to waste so much time

thank you very much to all
