it will be awhile but when he test them I will tell yous how he said they rode it is a pow ski so I want it to be like a medium stiff ski so thats why I used 45-45 tape to help along the edges there is a space about 2" apart at the widest part (tip) of the ski between the tape. all I can do is ...

yea a lot of my friends edges tear out at the tips and tail and waist so I used the strands that came off the carbon I cut. kevlar would prob be better.

And I was told that carbon didnt have much torsional stiffness but what it had was better then fiber glass

I heard the same thing about the 90 for skis but in snowboards you need it and the skis are 142 112 132 so the 90 cant hurt. with carbon there is more torsional stiffness in the uni so if I add 90 to the 0 there should be more torsional stiffness in the hole ski well it make sense to me
