Hi, As is the typical story I guess... I've been lurking around the forum for a few months and signed up recently so this is my first post.
To date I have not built any snowboards or snow ski's but I have built a few wakeboards (which is my main focus) there is a lot of crossover between our build materials and techniques so I was drawn to this forum.
My current setup is a vacuum bagged cassette with a hybrid press former i.e. no external pressure from a hose or alike but the cassette is pressed to form the rocker/camber etc... built into an oven. The oven is nearly finished now I should have the first board off the mould in a couple of weeks.
I'm wanting up up my game on the boards now with graphics in the top and base, integrated base materials for sliders/rails/ramps etc...
There's loads of info for me to trawl through on this place still so if I'm a little quiet and don't post much it's probably as I'm still reading!
Once I've got past my 2 posts I'll throw up some pictures.
