Online shop for solid balsa surfboard shaping sets
--------------------------------------

Our shaping kits start from only $300 AUD and include everything you need to shape your own balsa board (except tools*) Please note that the four or five piece balsa shaping kits are suitable for thin boards & flat rocker only - you must draw and cut your rocker on the narrower side of the timber to get the required width in the board.
Please note: We also offer second grade balsa shaping sets: These costs less only because second grade balsawood has more knots in it and the sticks may not be as straight as the regular wood (first grade).
Each set includes the following:
