Inception

Building a river surfboard starts with EPS foam.  I guess it really starts with having the desire to surf a standing river wave and the necessity of having the right board underbelly and eventually underfoot.  I chose to go the foam supplier route as an alternative to the Home Depot 2-in thick foam layer cake glue-up alternative to shipping a blank out from CA.  For the price of shipping, I have enough foam for 4 boards.  Once design finalized, next step is to cut a blank from the 2'x8'x10" block of 2-lb EPS foam.
