Spiny Norman Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 I've watched a few of the S Korean soft boot carving videos AND I just acquired an excellent condition Gnu CHB and said to myself, "self, instead of a splitboard how about a DIY tail cut out to rip like the kids?" In the distant past, perhaps at the old site there was a bunch of talk about reshaping the tails. A cursory search got me no where. Anyone cut up a perfectly good board or could point me to some good info or have an opinion on this bad idea? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario is correct with choice of tools. I used and angle grinder to cut through the edges. I cut down a 178ish Donek incline to be 164 Swallowtail so it would work better in pow and still carve well. ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digger jr Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 ARS Adjustable Rocker System:) The 4807s don’t bend as well as an Undertaker, but it gets - rid of the nose flop. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
