bobdea Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Plates add mass as well, assuming that they do a half decent job of moving independently from the vibrations of the board that I would think would offer a mess of damping without deadening. Busting through crud is where that applies but otherwise I think Jack is correct, and, also, why I think the recent coilers with the contra sidecut work so well in specific applications the board is probably subjected to a lot less twisting. Resulting in more predictable edge hold on hard surfaces much like a plate. That’s just a theory though and it comes to riding wide boards over the last 20 years. I hope this thing works well. The thing is probably the stiffest board I’ve put through the dirty room so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdea Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 There have been maybe four boards that have come through that have made me envious. one, is super secret, one is pictured above, one was a TB model that was big and beautiful and there was a mega wide BX board that I coveted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ever need a second opinion on how that prototype works… It is using the cool carbon weave, that as far as I am aware of, is only being used by Winterstick and It is full camber too with maple sidewalls, cherry and maple top sheet. Very cool and fun one-off (for now) Tanker 191 prototype collaboration with Winterstick and Rad-Air. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Production of Alloy Boards this year. Maybe none next year either...Might move production out of Tunisia and do it in House in Korea.
