How did the big new bladder go? Have you pressed anything without using a cat track yet?

works good. have not pressed without the cattrack yet.

I have one the same size as your new one. So far only done test pieces without a cat track. The hardest part is working out something that lifts the bladder back up when deflated. At the moment I've made a spandex sheet that wraps under the whole thing, works OK.
Next week will hopefully do a board without a cat track.

Little progress here.

Got some new directional twin cores ready to press.
3-155s
2-160s
2-165s

Yellow cedar and Sitka spruce cores with a couples birch strips under inserts.
Polly-u walls.

Also finished a new carbon split
160cm. Super directional shape. Cambered board with a nice early rise nose.
Carbon triax under the core . Carbon 0/90 biax above core
31.5/25.4/29.8
Crazy light. Stiffer flex. Going to be a crazy pow board.

Look amazing

Thanks. I'm really proud of this one. Took a chance on a new shape in some old molds and it turned out super rad!

Here's a close up of the new Carbon shmeartown.
Super tight grain old growth Red and Yellow cedar cores.
4 ounce uni/4.4 ounce biax carbon fiber.
In house dyed veneer topsheets/inlay.
4001 diecut crown base.
1900 grams a ski (4.19 pounds)
Tiny cambered section under foot to
Acomadate the little sidecut it has.
This ski is stiff and aggressive/and can still make a nice arc on a groomer
But clearly at home destroying powder at speed
115-148-140-145-102

I can modestly say that this ski rivals any big powder specific quiver ski on the market.

Makes me want to defile myself. Awesome looking sticks, with tech to boot.
