Greenlight has made it easy for all surfers -
first time shapers to veteran craftsmen - to build quality, eco-friendly, fun to ride surfboards.
Haven't built a surfboard before? No Problem!
Greenlight Surfboard Supply has created this comprehensive instructional video set to guide you through the process of building surfboards with Greenlight eco-friendly materials.
These videos are filmed in the realistic environment of a home shaper’s garage…. No expensive power tools or special shaping room lighting is needed. All that is required is a some time, common household tools, and desire to increase your stoke by building and riding your own surfboards.
Don't expect high def audio and video quality, or clips of surfers ripping waves on a boat trip somewhere. This video set is about teaching you the steps to building an eco-friendly surfboard that will look great and perform even better
Unlike any other instructional surfboard building videos available, Greenlight building videos are created with first-time surfboard shapers and glassers in mind. These instructional videos fully explain every step throughout the process – what to do, why to do, how to do, what not to do (to avoid common novice mistakes) , and how to fix mistakes if you happen to make them.
With Greenlight eco-friendly materials and these easy to follow instructional videos, you will have all the knowledge and confidence to shape and glass a professional looking, fun to ride, performance surfboard.

'I'm excited about this because your kit's are excellent. I really like the videos and how it is almost exactly real time for each step. There isn't any so start shaping the rocker and well skip ahead and there's the rocker. It gets you ready for what to expect."

"I have watched the glassing vids this weekend and they are great! I have been very satisfied with the quality of equipment and how you have supplied the kit to epoxy the board. I really did like the vids-
I'm working in a similar garage with all my tools around
so I thought it was perfect! Thanks!"
