Video: snowboard construction

Post by alexisg1 »

First, sorry for my poor english...

Secondly, a friend and I are starting to build our homemade skis (what a surprise hu !...), and as we are beginners, we got some help from a neighbour who is already building snowboard...pretty much like a pro. It has become a business for him actually

The website link is : http://www.phenix-snowboards.com/
On the left side menu you'll click an item called "videos atelier", and then appears the the 4 different steps for building a snowboard.
Or simply click here :

I know this is snowboard, but I thought this might be useful for some of us. I think the use of materials, and mostly of carbon layer and carbon strings, is interesting.
