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.

Justins 5'8'' fish





This is a small twin fish based on the Xandu wave rocked, the bottom contours are double to v in the tail.
Justin picked the board up on Wednesday, and we went for a surf at Gwithian in some beautiful little empty winter waves.
Waxed in transit!

Oak Veneer 9'8''

























































This board is a traditional styled longboard with soft 50/50 rails and a rolled v throughout. It also has a subtle scoop out of the nose.

The veneer laminates are oak, and the rails are solid oak.

The board is not glassed but is finished with a pinetar and linseed oil and wax blend.

Henry took this board for its maiden voyage on newyears day 2010, in very small but clean conditions.

The day was so cold crisp and clear unlike our fuzzy new years day hang over heads.
