Double Helix Vanguard Sup 7-6 x 26
Just finished this one with alot of help from my mate Clarky (master shaper & glasser) and Dale Chapman who sanded and protect it for me with the logos and he also cut the original blank on his CNC machine.Thanks Clarky and Dale stoked with the finished product.

This is a back yard build and with our chilly winter it took 14 days working nights. Clarky and I designed the build on the free version of Aku shaper. We then took it to Dale to get cut out ($250) then we took it home and finished shaped it and glassed it. All up cost around $550 plus grip (really cheap Sup). You can get a can a cut blank from Dale and you finish it and he glasses it fully finished for $1,050 if you don't want to make the huge mess at home. (recommended ) I won't do it again.

I've called this one the "Double Helix" two separate DNA strains of short board and Sups to fuse to a new DNA chain. I have looked at Simons boards from Deep and Azzas boards from Gulliver to shape the DH. The difference in this one is it's narrower at 26 and I have gone for the full single concave with no V and the narrow tail which brings it out to around 98 litres. I have also set the fin boxes dead straight . So this is a very different beast. Haven't had it wet yet but the board has come in at 6.4kg with grip. So watch this space for some video in the next few days.
