With the lofting software program i have.
I can shape surfboards guitars and have done aircraft (in the past)
Do you have a board you wish to reverse-engineer?
I would like to get back into doing the decks.
I am trying to make a skateboard mold that is shaped similar to a pringle chip. In the past I have used the extrusion tool because I had a simple profile only along one axis. However, on this mold, I have a profile along the x axis and y axisto make a shape similar to a pringle chip. What is the best way to do this?

Been doing this too long
Thanks for responding. I don't have a board that I am reverse engineering. I am starting from scratch. I am attempting to create a loaded board. It has reverse camber and a concave deck. I think I am overcomplicating things. i guess i am just going to mill my form with the concave and then bend the form to get the reverse camber. Let me know if this makes any sense. LOL.
Can you draw it on paper first?
this is the stuff i did for aerospace,
from sketch and budget the engineers got their projects completed.

I was able to get it done. This is a board we made for racecar driver Davey Hamilton Jr.

That looks great! I had a chuckle earlier in the thread about the potato chip shape.
I looked over at a scrap piece of 6-Ply (yes 6) crap plywood from Home Depot
and from it sitting for a few weeks it po'chipped like a pringle.
Definitely cool... make some more. $$$$
