Thanks. And nice pictures. But isnt this more of a profile cap construction?

profile cap = two basic structural piece: lower layer and upper cap

monocoque = one basic pice: dont have any clue how its supposed to work without using a lower belt. just leave it out? i have no clue...

Nobody any clue??

I know Cap skis integrate sidewalls and the upper layer of cloth in one piece. Still you got a seperate bottom layer of cloth. But how does Salomons Monocoque work? I claims to have only one piece replacing sidewalls, top cloth AND bottom cloth. How ist that supposed to work? Do you have a tube-like...

what do you mean by "balanced"? Symmetric to the core, so same stuff below and above??

Hi, I'm planning on building some rockerskis similar to Lotus 138s oder Armada ARGs. Does anyone have any more data on the dimensions? I can hardly find any data, just length and the three or five sidecut dimensions. But nothing on how high tip and tail are, how exactely the rocker ist shaped, how m...

Does anyone have any charts stating both tensile strength and compressive strength of common fibres such as carbon, aramid and fibreglass? I can't find anything good..

Why do you usually use the same composite over and under your core? Wouldn't it make more sense to use different materials? E.g. carbon under the core makes sense since carbon is really stiff and therefore is good under tension when the ski is flexed. But since it is so stiff carbon also tends to br...

Hi, as I have no clue what kinda composites to use I wondered what you guys usually take and why? The Skibuilder guys seem to favor triaxial 22oz (750g/mm²) GFK - what do you use? Is there any "guideline" when to use triaxial, biax, atlas, etc? What's the difference and which breading is s...
