Ho fellow swellinfo.com surf bort riders. Came across this intelligent read about bottom design of anyone is interested. Thought I would share, found it on a Google search thanks to greenlight surf shop (located in manasquan) best surf shop around (for custome boards) http://hosted.verticalresponse.com/235086/24823b9b52/441001097/e301df06d4/ You pal Mr Belmar
LB your contributions on here and within the EC scene seem medal worthy. Ill be in the workshop creating your award shortly. Extremely informative, thanks mang.
Mr Belmar, you get no replies on this post. And why? You said the site was "intelligent". You doomed it to failure. This message board has nothing but morons. No intelligent life here. Go back to Mars, dude.
Surfboard design gobbeldykook is boring to most surfers. And from that, arises the "magic" and "soul" of surfboards and the "guru" status of shapers. But the truth is... it's all physics. I had a guy PM me a few years ago saying I should just shut up about all the science stuff... "can't you leave anything to the imagination?"
LB, really solid paper. I was reading the latest surfer/surfing (can remember which) and they had an article on "the basics" of surfboard design with 4 shaper given their .02. Your article was more informative and well worth the read.
Agreed - thanks LB! It was very informative - and the thing I liked about it most it that you took the time to explaine the science behind it. Science is pretty cool! Oh yea-thanks for your intelligent reply Barry... O Barry, What would we do with out you?? You are correct tho , in that most guys on here (who happen to be reading this from the computer in thier parents basement) are more interested in calling each other names and gossip and such... #GoodObservation
