Next week Surfing Life #305 goes on sale and with it comes the 2014 Board Bible. To celebrate this year’s Board Bible we thought it’d be a good idea to round up some of the shapers for a beer in our home town of Burleigh Heads.

While Mark Riley of Riley Balsawood Surfboards says that ordering a custom balsawood board is a little different to your normal shortboard, what you tell the shaper is still basically the same. Stay tuned for the next episode of Shapers Series where we’ll show you what’s not worth telling your shaper.
