Magnesium Composites

Post by OnDeck »

From a recent press relase by Gnu:

"In addition to Asym Sym Sync, elliptical EC2 camber/banana with Magne-Traction underfoot creates a fun, all-mountain ride. Impossibly strong, ultra-lightweight magnesium fiber, rugged Bio Beans topsheet material, black and blue swirl sidewalls, lightweight Colombian Gold eco wood core and a sintered base combine are brought together in the Gnu Impossible for the most technologically advanced snowboard being built today."

Some hyperbole here, but the mag fibre caught my eye. Anyone know anything about this?
