Great read.
A few things I found interesting. Reverse profiled core with the camber cut in to the bottom of the core. I don't get it. I read the description a few times and it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
No heat.
2:1 mix epoxy which is I think quite a bit thicker than what most people are using.
Topsheet applied after pressing?

Volkl in the past cut the camber into the thickness profile. It made the skis
real snappy. Makes sense to me. The fibers are relaxed and not stretched
like they are when you press the camber into the core. When you press the ski down, I would think that you begin compressing the fibers immediately instead of come back to neutral and then compressing the fibers. It just seemed to work.
