These look great. No pricing though. Looking for one with a wrist strap too.

Why don't you just use your hand?

Any one ever checked out Rollerman.

Click on the second pic to see the vid.

I wonder if you had a suit similar to Rollermans but instead of where the rollers are have handplanes, and try bodysurfing.

I'm thinking a handplane on each hand, a small alaia strapped to the front of your chest, two longer narrow handplanes that run from the top of your leg to the knee. and two smaller handplanes on the top of each foot.

The human surfboard.

i just have a facebook and instagram that i put most of my boards on. not many hand planes though.

here's one from a while back. I have a laser etcher now for burning logos too, so they are a bit more schmick than the graphics on this one.

ths ones paulownia with ply stringers. i've found oak, maple, western red cedar and aussie cedar better than paulownia, because they are stronger and don't get trashed as easy leaving them in your car etc.

none of these are wooden but are all pretty good to use, I have had a crak with all of them. The first one is a foam and glass one I made up from a broken board the other two are owned by a friend of mine. According to him the redwing is pretty old but really good in choppy conditions, the other one is a custom made one from somewhere on the central coast (I think) it is layered glass and is hollow through the centre. The amount of lift it gives is incredible I have seen this guy get some long rides in shallow barrelling reef waves in Indonesia.
