Answer 1

G'day Jake L,

Thank you for your question.

Surfboards were originally made of wood or balsa. These days they are mostly made of polyurethane or polystyrene foam covered with layers of fiberglass cloth and polyester or epoxy resin. However, there are some specialty boards made out of aluminium and carbon fibre.
