Since the beginning, Grain has shared their process of board building with the surf community through their DIY surfboard kits and multi-day hands-on workshop experiences. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable for the first time through Huckberry, this kit represents Grain’s latest innovation, born from years of rigorous product development. The DIY build process begins by gluing up pre-milled cedar planks and securing an internal frame to the rocker table to define the board's shape. Next, you’ll attach flexible cork rails to the perimeter with glue and clamps. After some initial shaping and prep, you will attach the top planks, sand the form to perfection, and finish by glassing and waxing your custom ride. While woodworking experience is a plus, anyone who enjoys working with their hands and following instructions can tackle this project with success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit includes all of the materials necessary to build your board including Maine grown cedar planks, a precision cut internal frameset, cork rails, hardware and blocking, glues, epoxy, fiberglass and basic glassing supplies. Expect around 40 hours of hands-on time to complete a board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin-pin evolution of Grain’s classic Tern model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for longer lines, steeper pockets, and versatile travel surfing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalanced feel: fish-like speed and looseness with pintail hold and control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean, drawn-out lines for smooth rail-to-rail transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefined foil for stability, drive, and responsiveness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle to double concave for speed down the line and added lift\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard twin-fin setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes in a two-part DIY kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSustainably sourced wood components from Grain Surfboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-quality glassing materials included in kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium fin boxes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSizing \u0026amp; Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished Board: 6’4” x 20” x 2 ⅝”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolume: 36 L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKit ships in two boxes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBox 1 Wood Parts from Grain: 80” x 8” x 7”, 38 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBox 2 Glassing Supplies: 9” x 9” x 13”, 15 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTools are not included. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/grainsurfboards.com\/pages\/tips-and-tricks\"\u003eDownload the appropriate PDF here for building.\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrain surfboards will support its builders by phone, email, and in person during the DIY process.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Grain Surfboards","offers":[{"title":"Wood \/ One Size","offer_id":44808376123532,"sku":"352458","price":975.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/3009\/9852\/files\/98642_Grain_Surfboards_Arctic_Tern_Surfboard_6ft4in_Wood_01_Product_on_White.jpg?v=1763500551","url":"https:\/\/huckberry.shop\/products\/arctic-tern-surfboard-6-4","provider":"Huckberry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
