NC Paddle Surfer said...: Thanks Steve. The pads are not exactly like I planned. The white was going to white marble, but my supplier didn't have that color anymore.

It was way too much work to ever do again. I've got about 10 hours labor in both boards.; August 17, 2011 at 6:04 PM
Chris Hill (CHill) said...: DW,
Boards look great, should have got you to do the one I just redecked, such a pain in the but.
Great job!

CB1 said...: Looking good! Out of curiosity, why did you vacuum bag the tail pad?; August 17, 2011 at 6:48 PM
NC Paddle Surfer said...: Thanks Chris.

Brian, I vacuum bagged the tail pad to force the arch bump to conform and stick!; August 17, 2011 at 7:32 PM
NC Paddle Surfer said...: FYI-the pads were glued.

It would have cost $40 more for pads with PSA.

$12 for glue is the better deal.; August 17, 2011 at 7:44 PM
CT said...: DW,

just curious, why did you change the deck pads?; August 19, 2011 at 11:09 AM
NC Paddle Surfer said...: SUPrman,

The deck pad is slippery. I've been adding a little wax since last November. I finally had too much wax in it.; August 19, 2011 at 7:40 PM
