Hello all,
Unfortunately, I have to move myself and the family to Fresno to take care of the folks. I'm going to seriously miss the ocean and surfing in the lovely South Bay, but family is priority. Since I won't be able to surf as much, I wanted to get into shaping to keep my stoke going. I live in an apartment now but will be moving back home to a house w/ a shed and backyard, so I'll finally have some space to try shaping out. Any recommendations to pick up some basic tools and blanks? I've done a bit of research myself with FoamEZ and Shaper Supply but if anybody knows someone that sells them a bit cheaper or has some slightly dinged up ones for discount, please let me know. I'd like to shape with EPS, because it's more environmentally friendly but I've read that they're difficult to shape with. I applied a few times the last few months for a job at the Lemoore Slater Wave Pool but haven't gotten a response lol
Thank you!
