nekdut Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Hers a model you may consider if you still want to get a close look at the trees:lol:Not finished yet but will be soon [/img] I like the hint you provided near the Coiler logo, letting us know which direction to go in order to use the board best. :) Is it just me, or does the carbon butterfly look wider than the board itself?

Dan Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 A Moiler, or a Cadd? Has Bruce done other boards with carbon butterflies? Is this one carbon+metal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Varsava Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Gee, I didn't realize my entire photo album would be public:eek: The thing in Pic 5 is a set of 267 cm skis I made which is used with that platform for windsurfing on ice. The white one was the same as it is made as one piece and cut. I just took the pics as a joke last season, 267 cm, no sidecut, anyone want to try it:eek: They only need one edge so it can be built as one piece and then cut. The carbon bfly was wider than the board as it was just installed and not yet trimmed. Finished it tonight and will post final pics tomorrow. Size is deceiving as its smaller than it appears. 157 x 18.5x VSR approx 9m. Guess it looks wide as its so short It may be touch soft but will not know till I ride it on Fri. Real warm on Thurs and then real cold on Fri, PERFECT! It has substantially more camber than any board I have built and flex pattern is very very Madd ish. The cosmetics were f*#k ups on my part. Forgot it was going to be a clear board so left pen marks on the core. DUH! Also had some metallic pen marks on the carbon form a previous job so they bled through. All simple stuff to fix of course. The carbon came out 99% good which is plenty good even for me. I thought that would be the hard part but I came up with a simple process to get it all smooth and real nice matte finish. Can;t wait till Fri. After I test it it will be sent to a Madd specialist for further tests. Metal one will be done too, complete with carbon Bfly but that may be an early next season project as I won't be selling any till testing proves all is OK BV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Varsava Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Sorry but I edited the photos so the original links no longer work 157 x 18.5 x VSR approx 9m( ok I stole it right off a Madd 158) SL nose decamber, slight tail decamber. Carbon bfly and lateral carbon tail reinforcement Substantially more camber than typical for one of my board. Flex pattern very Madd ish Testing it on fri on hard icy stuff if weather man is right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEJ Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Bruce, is the arrow next to the Coiler logo there so the park monkeys know which part of the board is supposed to face forward? Living on twin tips can be confusing. Beautiful piece of work! Any chance you can re-glue the butterfly that's coming loose on my MADD? Damn, bought the wrong year!

Living on twin tips can be confusing.Beautiful piece of work! HAHAHA That arrow goes on all boards as it indicates which way to orient sidecuts with core profile. On this board I had so many new things to think about it never occurred to me it would be visible. Realized that one a bit too late. You can see the binding center lines too. I really wasn't too worried about it as I thought it was going to come out looking pretty rough but it came out a lot nicer than expected Pretty much good enough to sell as is but test ride still needs to be done. Before I say I can reglue your plate on, lets see if mine stays on:lol: BV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Varsava Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Awesome. At last.Is there metal in there?? No metal as I was out so finally had a few weeks to fool around on the glass Angrry project. The carbon really looks nice so that was the major conquest for stuff being learned. Metal one will be ready to test next season. Methinks that is going to be a fun ride:biggthump Really looking forward to getting this thing on snow tomorrow. Not too sure what to expect but it pretty much all came out as planned. Stiffness may be a touch soft for me but will not know till I try it. The camber came out a few mm short of my goal but is still more than anything I have ever built BV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
