Has any body tried using inlayz on sups? This was an experiment glassed pretty light with an inlayz plus 4oz deck and 4oz plus unidirectional carbon tape on bottom with medium weight EPS (7'5"x26 3/4"x 3 3/4"). I have only had it out for two short surfs but no dents or issues so far.
I'm thinking of doing the next one similar but with light weight EPS and 6oz cloth to get a stronger skin but keep the weight down - any advice would be greatly appreciated

Hey John
yes I've used it on the noses of sups but this is my first full deck and it feels good and grippy and really light. Although I might have to rip it all off and re do it if I went too light on the deck and need to reinforce - which I suspect is the case
Bill
No, i don't use on my own SUP garage's made 
but i will try on my next one because it's going to seal EPS in a single step.
Sealing the EPS mean saving epoxy resin, and save of weight and no holes in the laminate glass.
Thank you for this very interesting subject 
Nice board, how much liters and what is your weight? please do a topic about
Hey Kami I'm 72kg and I would guess the board is about 90litres. I left a fair bit of foam in it and gave it a pretty flat deck. Not much rocker as I was just using offcuts from two bigger boards.
I will post more when I get a good feel for how it surfs. I had to do some guesswork on the fin placements (cant and toe in etc.) due to the short length of the board and I'm happy to post what I used if it goes OK and anybody is interested.
Cheers Bill

Before starting an other board, try this one some times, learn from it before. 
Right Termite, fin placement is the real deal doing new boards as SUP can be. Coming from designing surfboard it is a new world drawing placements with these extraordinary width .
Front fins looks all right with enough area around to make the board flight. As you place fins close to the rail so choose fins with no tips like TC fins or AB2; I like AB2 because these fins make work the board more as a single fin than a twin/thuster and easier to bury the back of the board. Your rear quad fin look close from the rail too and a bit too far back.IMO
Have a go like this but i might try first in thruster set instead on quad.
Any way you need gggoood waves for your board. She will work for sure because your choice of dimensions /volume for your weight sounds perfect to me

Looks cool. Is it versatraction on the deck?
does anyone know where you can get versatraction ?
thanks,Rocket

Thanks for the advice Kami, sounds good. I'll compare quad and thruster and see how t gos.
Bill
TRI or quad are great combo of fins . Bill, think about twinzer like my board i did surf for almost one year now, i just come back from Caribbean , and can say: this twinzer fin set up works great
Hi Kami looks interesting, very nice board too!
I might pm you for fin placements and board dimensions when I start the next project if you are willing to share.
Cheers Bill

No problem, sharing is my purpose to read this forum.
I will be happy to help you trying Twinzer or any other kind of fins set up on your next SUP project.
Send MP when you want.
