Sort of. It was a CNC shaped blank from Midget, but there was still a lot of work to finish it. Especially when I trimmed 3" off the tail and 2" off the nose.

Glassed a bit different this time. The deck was glassed first with 4 oz, and a tint, then laminated the bottom with6oz, and then lammed the deck again but with 6 oz. A bit off weight but I have realised that weight is helpful in getting into the wave as well as pushing through flat spots and ****e.
22" wide and 3 1/4 thick, glassed with epoxy resin. Need to master that.

If was to do it again I would aim for 23" wide, with the widest point a bit back, and a slightly pinnier tail, but it was an exercise to occupy myself.
