Abstract
A surfboard includes a board and a plate secured to the bottom of the board and formed by a foamable material. A reinforcing mesh is embedded in the plate and includes a number of mesh openings. The material for forming the plate is engaged into the mesh openings for allowing the reinforcing mesh to be solidly embedded in the plate and for greatly increasing the strength of the surfboard. The reinforcing mesh may be embedded in the lower portion of the plate or may includes a thickness equals to that of the plate or greater than that of the plate.
