Tim Stafford Custom Surfboards: EPS parabolic wood rail bonzer core

Tim Stafford Surfboards

Mostly bonzer inspired creations, made in Cornwall. Designed, shaped, glassed, sanded, finned and finished by Tim Stafford.

I make boards that are easy to ride, that feel natural under foot. Most aren't conventional but they will help you reach that point where you stop thinking about what's under your feet and start to focus on where you want to go and how you want to get there. Why bonzers?

Always happy to chat about your needs and what would work for you but please initiate contact by email or Facebook... details on www.timstaffordsurfboards.com | Ride and glide.

EPS parabolic wood rail bonzer core

I’m not sure if i love or hate shaping EPS. It tears, spalls, then goes all fluffy and it sticks to everything… but i do seem to get on with it! This one is going high-tech… EPS core that will take a carbon-kevlar epoxy bottom, wood deck and wood rails sealed in a 4oz epoxy wrap. Strong light and very high performance. It’s quite complicated doing a core as you have make allowances in all the measurements for the wood etc… and the rails have to be glassed 100% square to get a good bond with the parabolics...

This one will be 5’11 x 2 1/2 x 20 3/4 when finished. Any takers drop me a line.
