Always wanted to learn to shape your own surfboard? Here's your chance!
Brookdale Community College in Lincroft, New Jersey, is offering a Surfboard Design and Construction course that runs for four consecutive nights in March, with a second opportunity again in May!
Hands-on course will cover the basic principles of physics and materials science applied to surfboard design, construction and performance. Students will participate/collaborate in all phases of the design and construction of a single surfboard using both traditional and modern tools, techniques and materials. Class lottery will determine the winner of this new, custom surfboard.
TOPICS: Shaping (foam and blank selection, planshape, rocker, foil, rail profiles, bottom contours); glassing (materials selection, lamination, artwork, hotcoating); fin placement and installation.
Enrollment is limited. Two sections to choose from:
Section 1: Mon-Thurs, Mar 16-Mar 19, 2009 6-9 pm (three more heads needed for the class to run. Sign up today!)
Section 2: Mon-Thurs, May 18-May 21, 2009 6-9 pm
