     Are you passionate about surfing and craftsmanship? If so, our workshops are tailor-made for you. Join us for an immersive and hands-on journey into the art of creating your very own Hollow Wooden Surfboard, combining traditional woodworking techniques with a touch of modern craftsmanship.
 
     During the full 3 days, we will guide you through every step of the process, from selecting the finest wood to shaping, assembling, and finishing your personalized surfboard. Throughout the workshop, you'll gain valuable insights into the history of wooden surfboards, the importance of sustainable materials, and the joy of creating something truly unique with your own hands.
    No prior woodworking experience is required. We welcome enthusiasts of all levels to learn a new craft.
       Please note that all wood and materials for board construction are included, as well as the glassing process. Glassing can take up to two weeks to complete. If you are not located nearby and cannot stay in town for that period, we offer secure shipping across Europe. Alternatively, if you prefer to take the board with you, we can recommend a trusted glassing service closer to your hometown.      

    As spots are limited to 3 people per workshop, we recommend securing your place at the earliest. To register, reach out to us via WhatsApp or Instagram.

Registration fee: 200€
