I have the opportunity to get a heap of eps sheets 90 mm x 1mtr x 4mtr . And I have looked at every board making site possible I have a good understanding of the difficulty & time involved . I have the shed & tools & skill with tools and I feel confidante that i should be able to do a reasonable job . I will have to make a hot knife but that's no problem. What I don't have is an understanding of the finer aspects of board design . So I'm making this appeal in the hope I could be directed to a book or website or tech course that could give me a better understanding of this or the diminsions of current boards . Even if I don't end up making boards out of it & I just use it to line the shed with I would still like to know more about board design so I can understand what happens when subtle changes are made with the new models. I would like to start with a board about 120ltr & then do a board about 70ltr .I'm 70kg I thought about doing the 70ltr 1st but it just wouldnt get used that much in sydney so I would have a long wait to be able to use it & I think that the smaller board would be less forgiving if the design was wrong I could be wrong thats just my thoughts. So any help would be greatly apreciated . Thank you Max
Looking to buy a 120 l slalom Board - Lots of guys in Sydeny on Fanatic Falcon boards and heard a rumour that JP Boards dont have as much carbon as fanatics - Any suggestions ? They are the same price.
