Kneeboard Shopping Resource

Post by Aikibuu »

Hey Folks,

After buying kneeboards from a certain shaper down in Orange County California for years I am looking for for new shaper. I am familiar with Bud McCray (Blast Kneeboards) and he's great but KUSUA used to have a list of kneeboard shapers from around the globe. Can anyone recommend where to look?

As for preferences I live in Ventura California USA and I would love to find someone who can craft balsa or bamboo based boards. I want these boards to use as little as possible in the use of petroleum based products/materials when it comes to their construction.

See you in the water!

Check in with Joe Taylor on this site. He's in your area, is getting his own boards made, and he know a lot of your options with different shapers in SoCal.

I happen to have a fish blank glued up in solid balsa. Can be made wider to build a kneeboard. Unfortunately, balsa blanks are labor intensive and costly. But it could be glassed with Entropy resin which is very eco-friendly, Bio-based Epoxy resin.

PM me or email through my website if interested.
