Abstract: A method of manufacturing a polyurethane-expanded polystyrene hybrid material surfboard, the method comprising: (i) inserting a sheet of expanded polystyrene comprising a plurality of positioning lugs into an interior of a mould cavity formed from at least one mould; (ii) clamping the mould such that the sheet of expanded polystyrene is enclosed; (iii) injecting polyurethane into the mould cavity such that the void between the expanded polystyrene and mould cavity is filled with the polyurethane; (iv) setting and removing the surfboard from the mould; (v) subjecting the surfboard blank to further processing to fine tune the surfboard profile and shape; and (vi) glassing the shaped board using bio-based epoxy resin along with advanced recycled cloth fibres and finally subjecting to sanding process to obtain the final surfboard.

Abstract: A non-conductive retrieval tool with a magnet connected a handle by a linkage assembly. The linkage assembly can be adjustable to maintain an orientation or position based on manipulation of a user, and can be made of a non-conductive material to safely operate in electrical applications. In some embodiments, the tool can include a socket portion near the magnet to apply torque to work pieces.
