Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a step-by-step, illustrated guide to make a solid, lightweight, wooden surfboard from scratch. It begins by showing readers how to design their own surfboard on a computer but offers a way to skip that by downloading a complete template from the author's website. The remaining chapters give detailed instructions for cutting, assembling and coating with fiberglass all the parts necessary to make a classically elegant, high-performance surfboard whose immense beauty will turn heads. Each page provides plenty of timesaving tips the author has learned from carving numerous wooden surfboards over the last several years. The book also includes lists of tools and supplies, as well as other resources for additional information that might be of interest to the builder of a wooden surfboard. The wave-riding vehicles that result from following this tutorial are works of art that would be suitable for hanging on a museum wall. The author, however, strongly encourages builders to take their new masterpieces for many memory-making adventures in the surf.

Book excerpt: The evolution of the surfboard, from traditional Hawaiian folk designs to masterpieces of mathematical engineering to mass-produced fiberglass. Surfboards were once made of wood and shaped by hand, objects of both cultural and recreational significance. Today most surfboards are mass-produced with fiberglass and a stew of petrochemicals, moving (or floating) billboards for athletes and their brands, emphasizing the commercial rather than the cultural. Surf Craft maps this evolution, examining surfboard design and craft with 150 color images and an insightful text. From the ancient Hawaiian alaia, the traditional board of the common people, to the unadorned boards designed with mathematical precision (but built by hand) by Bob Simmons, to the store-bought longboards popularized by the 1959 surf-exploitation movie Gidget, board design reflects both aesthetics and history. The decline of traditional alaia board riding is not only an example of a lost art but also a metaphor for the disintegration of traditional culture after the Republic of Hawaii was overthrown and annexed in the 1890s. In his text, Richard Kenvin looks at the craft and design of surfboards from a historical and cultural perspective. He views board design as an exemplary model of mingei, or art of the people, and the craft philosophy of Soetsu Yanagi. Yanagi believed that a design's true beauty and purpose are revealed when it is put to its intended use. In its purest form, the craft of board building, along with the act of surfing itself, exemplifies mingei. Surf Craft pays particular attention to Bob Simmons's boards, which are striking examples of this kind of functional design, mirroring the work of postwar modern California designers. Surf Craft is published in conjunction with an exhibition at San Diego's Mingei International Museum.
