ย ๐โโ๏ธ๐ Volume vs Thickness: A Surferโs Dilemma! ๐
๐โโ๏ธEver found yourself wondering how volume and thickness affect your surfboardโs performance? ๐ค I recently had a deep chat with Gary, a skilled surfboard shaper, and it got me thinking!When I placed my board order, Gary asked me for the volume, but I could only remember the thicknessโ2 5/8". ๐โโ๏ธ Curious, I asked him to explain the difference, and here's what I learned:Thickness refers to the center thickness, while volume is the overall foam inside the board. ๐ Itโs all about how foam is distributed across the board, which impacts how it rides.For example, a dome deck has less foam at the rails, while a flat deck offers more foam on the rails. ๐โโ๏ธ Finding the right balance is key!If you're jumping between different shapers or boards, youโll notice the variations in how volume is spread. Every shaper has their own unique approach. ๐Whether you're a pro or a beginner, understanding how volume and thickness affect your ride can totally change your surfing game! ๐๐คWhatโs your take on the volume vs thickness discussion when selecting a surfboard?
