Overall thickness

Post by Xenia »

At the thickest part what percentage of your ski/ snowboard is made up of core and base material.

What I am trying to ascertain is what I might expect my overall thickness of my board to be if the core thickness is 8mm.

Not sure how legitimate this question is. Just trying to get my drawings a little more accurate before going any further.
