|
|
Hey i am almost done with the boards that my friend and i are making and i wanted to share it with you guys. The one is based off of the kampus k series and is 40 in long and about 15 1/2 in wide. I still need to finish the last couple coats to protect it and grip tape it but it almost done. The second one was made by my friend and is 38 in long and 14.5 in wide.

Yeah both the 40 and the 38 are flat. We've made concave boards in the past but we didnt have the proper funds to make them this time. Both of the boards have the same rocker, its just a continous rocker. I've wanted to make a new press with a three stage for a while but ive been pretty much broke all summer so thats going to have to wait.

What do those bad boys weigh? What kind of wood did you use?

I dont have exact weights on the boards, but the 38 is definitely lighter then a cassette 41. The 40 in is around the same weight maybe a little lighter then the cassette. As far as the wood i used... that my friend is a secret. But i will say this, the boards definitely hold together. I am currently riding one i made from last year and it is still in great condition.

Looks good, I was out on Diamond Lake last year. Haven't had a chance to go this year, my buddy has been sick all summer. He is the one with the two 80-something MasterCrafts at the dock, maybe you know of him. Anywho, welcome to the site.

How does the continuous rocker feel? I think it would be hard for ollies and the likes. Hey and are you selling those, because they rock so hard it makes me want to slap my mom.
