Riding the waves is a personal, gratifying experience, and one that can be even more fulfilling with the personalized DIY disco surfboard.
Inspired by Luv AJ‘s lookbook, HonestlyWTF.com teaches us how to make a disco surfboard. To make a personalized disco surfboard, you will need a surfboard, a surfboard wax scraper, pickle wax remover, Weldbond adhesive and 1200 1″ x 1″ square mirror tiles. The level of difficulty in making one of these isn't too hard, yet it will be very tedious gluing 1200 tiles on the board.
One of these surfboards will definitely stand out from the pack, so you can hang ten and everyone will be able to spot you from a distance. The board doubles as a mirror, so when you get out of the water, you can check yourself out, just like everyone else will be doing.
