WHY USE PAULOWNIA?

If you aren't familiar with paulownia its a very
sustainable, fast growing, soft wood that's a
little heavier than balsa but much stronger.  
Its the wood of choice for Alaia's because it
doesn't soak up salt water so you don't need
to glass it.  This is some of the lightest we've
seen.   In fact we've seen balsa that is
heavier than many of these planks.  Using
paulownia on the deck and balsa on the
bottom it should be easy to build a wood
surfboard that is as light as a foam board.
Call (714) 834-9968 or email brad@woodsurfboardsupply.com for shipping cost to your location.  
You can combine locally purchased woods such as redwood to create a pattern in your board.
These are estimates based on our experience building these  kits.  Your
requirements may vary based on how thick you cut the wood, the thickness
of the saw blade and other factors.  They also assume the wood is cut  
1/4" thick.  We can help you figure out your actual requirements so call or
write.  Sorry, we can only ship to the US mainland.  These estimates do
not include wood for the rails.   Boards over 8'0" long will require a butt
joint to make the timber long enough.
