Sharkboy Rocket - V2 Corkie Bellyboard

Inspired by Hawaiian Paipo boards and a forerunner of foam bodyboards, bellyboards offer a fast, exciting and environmentally friendly wooden alternative to foam and plastic bodyboards.

Time to ditch the surf wax with the grippy Corkie deck version of the sharkboy Bellyboard 🌊🦈🚀.

The Sharkboy 'Corkie' v2 is a performance bellyboard that features a concave hull and a scooped nose to improve performance, as well as a nylon cord ready for you to attach your leash if required.

Hand built with a woven fibreglass core sandwiched between two hardwood ply veneers and topped with a cork deck to create a super flexy, strong, fast and responsive board.

The v2 has a slightly wider shape than the traditional bellyboard, with gently curved rails tapering from nose to tail.

The logo is hand screen printed and the boards are finished with Danish oil and beeswax.

Approximate dimensions are 117cm in length, 345mm nose width tapering to a 280cm tail width, 9mm thick.

ABOUT SHARKBOY BELLYBOARDS:

My love of the sea started with sailing, as kids my brother and I did some windsurfing and dinghy sailing courses with the RYA in the summer holidays and were both hooked.
I went on to work as a GRP boat builder, first at yacht builders Colvic craft in Earls Colne, where we made some interesting craft including the kevlar reinforced Millennium Farr 65 round the world yachts. I then worked at White Formula in Brightlingsea for Olympic sailor Rob White mainly building Dart 18 catamarans.

All Sharkboy Bellyboards are handmade from responsibly sourced, Forest Friendly wood.
