Hi, I,m trying to get the materials to start building my first pair of homebuilt skis, but i´m having problems with the base, the abs for the sidewall and the tipspacers, and the topsheet (i´ve been looking for an opaque topsheet, p-tex or whatever, but a clear one would be o.k.).
I live in Spain and it would be nice if someone in Europe could help me telling me where can I buy small quantitys (I would like to buy materials for 3 or 4 pairs).
If somebody in Europe who has bought big quantitys would sell me something it would be even better...
Thanks a lot guys.

I have:
PTEX2000 black, green and gray at 9 euro/m
PTEX900 and PTEX2000 trasparent at 5 euro/m (they made a mistake and they sold me the 2000 at the same price than the 900)
edges at 1.5 euro/m, they come in pieces 2m long.
Shipping is about 20/30 euros.

Ok guys I´m interested in anything you can offer me, I´ll tell you when I decide what I´m going to do.
I´m thinking about using abs sidewalls, fixing the to the core before profiling, but actually I haven´t been able to get the abs yet... could you help me about this?

Hey, that sounds nice...I am trying to get my hands on the topsheet material as well
When you are saying white topsheet, you mean just white or transparent?

PB - what did you pay for shipping the rubber to UK?
If anybody plans to order VDS rubber - i'm interested too!

I ordered already a couple of rolls of VDS rubber and will probably have some to provide to others. Look at the sales forum for further information.
Best regards,
Geoff
