Abstract: An improved wooden surfboard and method of construction comprised of pre-cut layers of wood longitudinally arranged of predetermined thicknesses (502-512) stacked and bonded together following the shape of the surfboard. The longitudinal layers include slots (208) to slide and embed multiple transverse ribs (210) in perpendicular direction for joining the longitudinal layers together. The bonded longitudinal layers form a pre-shaped plank with the geometrical features of the surfboard without the need of carving and shaping the surfboard's geometry. A smooth finish is achieved after a light sanding of the pre-shaped plank. In some embodiments the longitudinal layers have predetermined perforations (202) to create air chambers (204) reducing the weight of the surfboard. Other embodiments are as described and shown.
