Trey, the compsite boards are made of UHMW with a wood core, like snowboards. and the wood decks are made of 9ply maple, with a marine grade adhesive. hope that helps man _________________ ▼▽▲△ |

Isn't UHMW a type of plastic extrusion and not a composite? Or they just using that on the base and top sheet? |

Are they all composite except the blacksmith and the Hettler?

Yea, I have seen Integs price...the team deck is $40 cheaper than the Distortion, I guess I'm just used to most other decks which are cheaper than Integs. Most decks aren't as good however. I am sure they are solid and well worth the money, and I don't think Adam would put out a product that isn't top notch. |

ROMAIN, yea i'm not exactly sure how they're made exactly to the T, but i think they're might be a layer of something that they put over the UHMW, the UHMW is on top of a wood core or foam core, then the uhmw to keep its strength or something, then a third layer but im not sure it could just be the 2 layers with the wood core and then the uhmw i'll talk to adam and find out. _________________ ▼▽▲△ |
