Hi, received some of your balsa putty yesterday for working on balsa RC plane bloody fantastic stuff. I've tried a couple of so-called modelling putties, but compared to your product, they were all shit. Keep up the good work, Steve

Fantastic Exhibition
A wonderful exhibition about the history of surfboards.
@rileybalsasurfboards Mark Riley has beautifully created this unique exhibition that shouldn’t be missed . It will be on another couple of weeks in Sydney at @hazelhurstartscentre .
We were so fortunate to experience it and learn from this curated story . Happy also to see Maura & Milla as a fun duet at the opening ceremony.
Thanks Mark and Lourdes for allowing us to be a part of this incredible moment . Proud of his research and dedication. Passion for surfing and handcrafted wooden surfboards . An extraordinary man that is passionate about surf and nature and has made an outstanding product that leads by example to others in how amazing many materials are that can help reduce landfill waste & ocean waste with more sustainable materials.

Build an Enviro Wooden Balsawood Surfboard with Mark Riley at Miranda
Great lumber in France
Hello Mark,
I just wanted to get back to you regarding the order sent to France.
After a hand injury forced a break (amazing what a planer can do to your hand... first time in 30 years of use!) I finally got around to opening things up and began shaping this week.
The cut lumber looks great, that'll be for the second board.
Anyway, I'm stoked to be advancing on this and thanks for working with me on billing and shipping.

made all the difference
Hi Mark,
Just wanted to share a quick update — I’ve completed my scratch build of the RES Eagle competition glider, and I’m stoked with the result! Every single part was cut, sanded, and painted by hand, and the take-off weight came in at just 436 grams.
Today was the maiden flight, marking the end of this 4-week project. I’ve attached a few photos so you can see what your balsa wood has turned into!
Thanks again for the great balsa — it made all the difference in this build.
Cheers,
Holger

Waist to Overhead Allrounder
Just been testing this board in Cyclone Alfred, it go's amazing, holds in on overhead solid waves and then on the other side it surfs waist high waves with looseness, it paddles well and duck dives easy a great all rounder board! Get yourself one whatever level surfer you are to your dimensions! Next test will be in Indo!

goes REALLY well
My board turned out really well. Looks great and surfs surprising well. I was very pleased with the shape bla bla bla and "thought" it should go well BUT it goes REALLY well. Light and turns like a shortboard. Stoked
