The Surfboard Shaping Starter Kit
Greenlight has developed this Deluxe Surfboard Building Starter Kit to make it easy for all surfers, of any age or ability, to build a quality, more sustainable, fun to ride surfboard.
Haven't built a surfboard before? No Problem! We got you covered!
Our Masterclass instructional videos not only give you the knowledge and confidence to build great surfboards, but also go so far to show you situations to avoid during the building process that would normally ruin your efforts.
No expensive power tools necessary, no special shaping bay either. You can make your own boards in a garage, basement, spare bedroom, or even outside!
You'll definitely discover a deeper connection with your surfing experience and attain a new level of stoke riding surfboards you built with this kit!
