    How'd you get the bands of tint to break so cleanly? Did you mask somehow or just a steady hand on the squeegee? Nice work!

    Looks great man! Did you find it easier to shape a longboard rather than something shorter? I am attempting to shape my first board and am still deciding on a blank size. I like the colors on your board too. Any tips/pointers for a first time shaper? Did you get your materials from Greenlight?

    No, not really it takes longer to shape a long board no question. Just take you time do things right and dont over shape. a good shape will lead to a good lam, a good lam will lead to a good hotcoat, a good hotcoat to a nice sand. and yes i work at greenlight
