Glass Tiger, is run by me Mark Roberts.

I make bespoke, custom, wood/EPS, surfboards that are not externally glassed.

The boards are constructed with hard wood veneers and hard wood parabolic rails, over an EPS blank.

I set up this blog to document the latest boards, developments, and generally any other stuff thats in the mix.

This is a recent board I made for Olly,
Its a short single fin, inspired by early single fins.
The length is only 5'10'' with the volume hidden in the wide point slightly forward.
The rocker is reasonable flat, with v running all the way through, flatting off at the tail.
Ollys stoked... Good times
