| 215894 | 10983 | Have boards got even more expensive in the past couple months? | 77 | Human | Aug 6, 2021 | 2021-08-06T08:55:19-0400 | I know he dreaded telling me but, like you said, that’s business. He works 10 hours a day, 6 days a week building surfboards… So when the prices shot up so quickly I knew he had his entire operation to think about as well as the ripple it was going to have on everything. I have no real sword in the fight here I’m lucky to be one of those shaper hobbyists some people were talking to earlier in this thread, which has given me proximity to just how much the real deal people whose businesses are getting railed by the supply chain. Something to keep in mind about cost and board building is that a lot of man hours go into the floating toys/trophies we own. |
