Hi sir.orange,
Yes, the width of the material is given in inches, and the thickness is in thousands of and inch. I may not have been looking in the right place on the link that you provided, but I didn't see any Durasurf material that was over .020 inch. The standard thickness that most of us have been using is .050 inch (1.2 mm). So, it looks like this particular company may not offer a Durasurf material that is thick enough to be used as a ski or snowboard base material. But like I said, I may not have been looking in the right place.
As doughboy pointed out in an earlier post, Durasurf may now not be offering a 1.2 mm product other than what is made in China. Don't know what that means in terms of quality.
