my plan is to shape two boards a standard PU/fibreglass and a more environmentally friendly board (biofoam, bamboo/hemp matting and bio resin?Huh??)
the plan is to get both in the water and do performance testing and video analysis etc.
but i need help on the choice of environmental aspects; bamboo, hemp fibres, any other suggestions and suppliers???
difficulties/allowances that need to be made for bio resin/natural fibres?

more information/opinion/suppliers i find out about the better. you mite even get quoted in my dissy!!!!!
thanks for all your help

my advice would be to start with a simple flat bottom board
most noticeable differences will be in flex patterns imo
