BoardRoom - Legends of Surfboard Shaping



'BoardRoom' is a feature length documentary that highlights the pioneers of modern day surfboard shaping. Following the conclusion of World War II, surfers, looking for a better way to build lighter boards, began using polyurethane in place of redwood and balsa. The evolution of the surfboard was at hand and surfing would never be the same. The film, which "pays homage to the men who created the boards and also shaped this industry," features a handful of legendary shapers such as Greg Noll, Hap Jacobs, Donald Takayama, Larry Gordon, Robert August, Dick Brewer and Terry Martin.
