Sharkboy Rocket  'Corkie' V1 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 Corkie soft deck version of the sharkboy Rocket Bellyboard 🌊🦈🚀.

The Sharkboy Rocket 'Corkie' V1 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.

Handmade with a woven fibreglass core sandwiched between two hardwood veneers and topped with cork deck. It is a a super flexy, fast and responsive bellyboard which excels in choppy messy waves while also being a great all rounder that flies on a clean wave.

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

Approximate dimensions are 117cm in length, 32cm nose width, 28cm tail width, 9mm thick.

(Please note, the grain of the wood is unique with every board and may differ from the listing photo)

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.
