Surfboard-grade balsa.  We have both 7'6"  and 8'6" balsa beams  that are 3 1/4" thick and anywhere from 3" to 6"
wide.  Most will average 10 board feet or more.  

Price for balsa up to 8'6" is  $7.99 per board foot
10' balsa beams are $9.99 per board foot

Shipping balsa over 8' long is tricky.  Call and we'll work out the best way.

If you purchase balsa at the same time you purchase a kit we can pack them together and save you on shipping.
Call or email us and we'll find the wood that best suits your needs.

When you call to order we'll make sure you get the correct amount of paulownia
and balsa.
WHY USE PAULOWNIA?
If you aren't familiar with paulownia its a very sustainable, fast growing, soft
wood that's a little heavier than balsa but much stronger.  Its the wood of
choice for Alaia's because once its shaped and oiled  it doesn't soak up
salt water.  We have some of the lightest paulownia around. In fact we've
seen balsa that is heavier than many of these planks.  Using paulownia on
the deck and balsa on the bottom it should be easy to build a wood
surfboard that is as light as a foam board.
These estimates are based on our experience building these kits.  They will
provide enough wood to cover the deck and bottom of the boards listed.  They
assume the wood is cut 1/4" thick and your saw blade is 1/8" thick.   Surfboards
over 8'0" long will require a butt joint to make the timber long enough. We can
help you figure out your actual requirements so call or email for exact quantities.

AFFORDABLE BALSA SURFBOARD BLANK KITS!
Wood Surfboard Supply has a good supply of hard-to-find of balsa beams.  Now you can build an old school solid
or chambered balsa surfboard yourself.  The beams are in various widths and come in the following lengths:
  •    7'6" (add a nose and tail block to make a board up to 8'0")
  •    8'6" (add a nose and tail block to make a board up to 9'0")
  •  10'0" (add a nose and tail block to make a board up to 10'6")
Each kit is hand selected and balanced. Since the weight
of balsa varies considerably from board to board the
heavier beams are put in the middle.  Those boards can be
left as-is for extra strength or chambered to reduce weight.
The beams are marked so you know exactly where each
one goes.
ALL BEAMS ARE HAND SELECTED TO GIVE YOU THE BEST BALANCE AND APPEARANCE.
