I plan on length being 156-157 cm. 180 is just an in joke about his height.

A lot of the bells and whistles you see in consumer skis and snowboards have been put there in order to achieve something that can often be achieved in a much simpler way, but they use it anyway because it's easier for marketing. Just keep that in mind when looking at websites of big brands. You ca...

Are u putting al channel in there as well? Good luck. dded pita. KISS on the first one. I would rather have a channel than traditional hardware. I have no idea how its made though. If you know any videos that show how they're made please share. I've spent way too long searching for one with no luck...

The idea was to have the cork there to increase flex on the ends. Something lightweight, and bendable. I have been thinking more and more about using bamboo instead. Simply because it's more durable, but still light. My current board is wide and stiff, and no longer suits the things I want to do wit...

Nvm. Found that on the wiki.

Does the epoxy just fill in any gaps? Also, bout how much over hang would you give? I'm starting repairs on my board tip and ends today and notice it's just wood and edge. No spacer to be seen. So I definitely see the value in them.

The link is dead.

I've been scouring the internet finding places you can buy mats. With help from people here I know of some places where I can buy hardwood now, and snowboardmaterials.com seems like a good place for edges, custom base and topsheet, hardware, ect. I found another place that has good ABS and PTEXT sid...

I've spent hours reading over it. Unfortunate some of the pages dont have any info on them, but just the names of them help give an idea of the processes I need to look further into.

Right on. Looks like I have some errands tomorrow.

Sweet! Thank you. I'll be checking them out!

I'm just getting into the craft and have been looking into where I could buy good quality wood to make cores with. All google is giving me is videos of how brands make their boards. Does anyone know of a reliable retailer in the Puget Sound/Seattle area? I'm also open to online retailers if they hav...

You can get a medium flex out of any type of wood. The real question is, how thick should a core of a specific species with your desired outline dimensions and reinforcement layers be in order to achieve the desired stiffness. Try to search the forum for core thickness values others have used and t...

How are you planning on doing your core profiling? I've found that I got a lot of tearout using a planer on birch even with sharp blades. Other methods probably won't have that problem though. I have no idea. I really just discovered this was even a possible thing to do on your own a few days ago. ...
