    During the end sanding process, doesn’t the board weaken where you are sanding the fibreglass for the traction pads?

    • @OXSEnterprises
      @OXSEnterprises  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      From an on paper stand point, as soon as you sand fibreglass (or carbon) you weaken it. It's irrelevant really as the boards aren't constructed around the tipping point of them breaking and/or being too weak.
      On a side note this construction method is out of date as I've made a heck of a lot of improvements.

      Kevlar os hard to work with and fluffs up when is gets sanded and worn. Probably Couldn't use a worse material.

      You will need to find a way to bend something to form something and hold it there. Clamps work but you'll need a way to curve the material you're using.

      make a wooden stringer 3/4. draw a template. cut foam in half. gorilla glue one half of foam to stringer.. use as much tape as needed to form foam to conture of stringer creating front rocker....rinse repeat other half.

    You didn't show us anything? Except a magic trick… Leaving everything out? I'm grateful not to be banking on riding the board you taught us how to (not) make because we would be bummed riding nothing... Teach people your skill.. Don't hoard it?! This is so old energy... Nothing for the New Earth. PS- I taught Barton Lynch how to make a Street Boardz in 2003 with... I designed the Stik for Carveboard Sports... So Thanks for the Abracadabra...
