saw that vid dave, very cool.

pulled my 1st and 2nd cork decks out of the bag this week, pretty happy with the 2nd one, still room for improvement though.

eighties model getting some flash….

Dave, I know those deck channels you do along the rails of the Dynocores are to add strength - do they reduce the flex?

I have no empirical data to prove that, some of my team have found they added stiffness, but others feel no difference. Once I have my electronic recording data running I could give numbers.... In theory they should add some rigidity.. They certainly add to the composite structure

couple more unusaual boards i have been working on that ride really good in the chop and onshore.. the kind of submarine just under the surface like a dolphin... will post some pic next couple days...

Just a big serious gun. No need for stickers.

You never see 'em like that anymore.

Fcuk, we tested a cork top/Dynocore lil sharp shooter in the Telos for the ASL Board Test two weeks ago, it was Mental.

was a five box board but we didn't go to quad, we thought it might be too fast.

The cork is such a different feel, I have no long term test experience with its longevity but it feels so nice to paddle on and to dispense with tail pad.

well done Dave, it was a heavy lineup of boards on that test and the corky was right there.

I love the cork top dynos ... Durability wise, if it's anything like the standard dynocores,they'll last longer than Schment's Bristlecone pines.

cork is great.
And it can be resurfaced.
