Surfer Magazine August ’98 Review by Ben Marcus “Glassing 101 by JC and Carl Ackerman In 68 words: Shaping 101 taught you how to shape a blank. Glassing 101 will teach you how to make it waterproof. Put together with the same quality that made Shaping 101 so engaging , Glassing 101 walks you through all the tools and techniques of taking a shaped blank to a finished product. Once again, even if you never glass your own board, every surfer should see this at least once. “Soundtrack: Barry Margolin , Bubonic Funkateers , Justin Hobart Brown , The Sellouts , Earl’s Son , The Turning.”
