Hi all
Been lurking for a while, finally made the plunge to register. I'm going to make a skwal and a GS/SG snowboard. I've decided to go for full bamboo construction, horizontally laminated for various reasons, and maybe (but not certain yet) hemp layup, but I would be grateful if anyone in the area has local contacts for base, edges and VDS. I might be able to touch up my contacts at Dynastar (although I believe their contstruction has moved from Sallanches to Spain) or Quechua (who allegedly do their proto construction in Magland), or maybe even a couple of local-ish "artisanale" skibuilders, but any other contacts would be useful.
Thanks in advance
Simon

A bad day skiing is always better than a good one at work...
Bonjour Simon,
I live in Chamonix and I'm working on prototype environmentally friendly skis - I think I should have most of the materials you are looking for.
