This post is about riversurfing and wakeskating which started for me a few years ago when I moved from Vienna to Steyr/Upper Austria.
Austria, not Australia, in the landlocked country.
Our so called “Styroboard” is light weight, strong and clean, easy to handle and ideal for rendering. Accurate straight cuts and complicated profiles are very easy to achieve by using hot-wire, saw or knife. Well, this is not a very high devoloped construction.
It is just fun because it is that simple. It has not strap inserts, no pads, nor fins.
The rider feedback in the first impression has determined this board to be nicer than any other
board built for this improvised discripline!
This shape was merely a concrete implementation, And a starting point for a neverending search.
Everywhere in the world that has a coastline, and everywhere on this planet´s watery surface that is effected by swell patterns and wind directions, everywhere there are waves.
These waves are born as a confluence of barometric pressure and winds whose genesis is of somewhere unknowable and indefinable. If not in the imgagination of the omnipotent.
An infinitesimally small proportion of these gifts of the gods are ridable.
Most are destined to remain forever elusive.
If there is no coastline, waves can be improvised:
