WaxOn Surfboards

As it's the quiet time off-season for me, I'm keeping my eye sharp by doing some photography for local surfboard shaper, Conor at WaxOn Surfboards, who is based in Rathcormack, Sligo. It's really interesting to see how a board goes from being a foam blank through the different processes to eventually become a full blown surfboard in the water. The photos below show the shaping phase, and the 1st part of the glassing phase. As soon as Conor gets to finish the board off, I'll have the rest of the photos up here...right up to the finished surboard! I also happened to acquire a new board for myself while out at the WaxOn factory! Support your local shaper and all that!!!
