How would feel about sharing your DXF files on the plan tab on the forum. If you're happy to have them up there I can post them and would also be good to get a bit of a synopsis to put up there are well.
I don't mind at all mate as long as I'm credited to the design.

I have been riding the board now for a few months and i can safely say i could not me happier with the way the board rides. If i had to nitpick my design i would add 3-4mm or concave at the tips to give more stability at high speeds. The overall performance has been remarkable. The board sits brilliantly behind my my North Team Series - Jaime Pro- Wet Dream. She pops hard and lands smooth due to the even flex over the whole board. The rocker line is in hind sight quite large from what i originally intended but that has made riding it in the surf much more enjoyable than my team series.
IT EVENTUALLY BROKE........
WARNING to all those building boards. Do not skimp on the reinforcements under and over your inserts. After being hit by a wave one of my foot strap inserts tore out. this was easily fixed with some sanding and carbon but could of been avoided in the layup. I also recommend reinforcing underneath the inserts. when the screw is pulled up tight it can lift the inserts slightly causing a divet in the underside of the board. Using a carbon or glass cloth under the inserts you can spread the load from the screw keeping your boards underside nice and smooth.
