Re: Longboards - Rebuilding the quiver

Don't buy a "MODEL"....talk to a SHAPER about what you want & need...shapers dont bite,(well, most of them) & they WANT to make you a board you'll be STOKED with, (well, most of them).
I just USED a LOT of CAPITALS.

Re: To shape?

Shaping software good...machine translation not always good.....I like to call inexperienced designers "Drunks with guns" .....you cant pick up a computer screen, put it under your arm & FEEL it. You cant view a whole, actual size board on a 17" monitor. Like I said...software good, amazing actually...

Re: The Magic Wand

Have stripped & reshaped plenty of boards in my time.... my very first board became my very fourth board (circa 1978) Hard to find boards worth the time & effort,but still possible......I'm sure RV will post a picture of his latest creation.....I'm lucky the kitchen sink is still in the kitchen!

Re: The Magic Wand

Obviously , there wasnt enough technology used in the construction! I think you needed a carbon-kevlar vacuum bagged composite sandwich tungsten titanium legrope plug, with a parabolic balsa pin.
