Father ol' Man

The old man used to be a bit of a dude in his day.  Having a dig around in Gran's attic a while ago I came across these pics of dad, probably 1973ish, substantially skinnier and longer haired, building a surfboard for an A-level CDT project.  
I'm no surfboard historian but he was clearly influenced by board design of that era, narrow tail, the width in the front end of the board and altogether a lot more foam than modern shortboards, looks fun.
