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.

Tim Stafford and Glass Tiger collaboration















This is the finished 1st collaboration board between Tim Stafford and my self, Tim designed the board and Shaped the blank and did the art work and I did all the woody bits.
The shape is a classic 'clean line', its a 6'4'' with a reasonable amount of volume through out and full rails.
Tim and I are already well in to 'clolab 2' this time one of his 'freak fish' models, photos to follow soon...

Alaia







Just finished this alaia.
Its EPS foam cored in my usual construction method with glass and eco resin over the blank and then a single sheet of Gabon veneer top and bottom.
As always no external glass just varnish.
The dims are 6'9 x 17 1/4'' x 1 3/4''
Haven't ridden it yet, itching too though..

Lately I've been working on a collaboration project with Tim Stafford.
Tim took this shot of me honing the nose on this 6'4'' Bonzer 'Clean line' template.
Tim specialises in Bonzers, his eye for detail, his forward thinking in surfboard construction and his art work art is all truly amazing.... Check out Tims blog.
