Jon Dahl Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Another one bites the dust, as it were. My splitboard (homebrewed) is pulling the topsheet and a small bit of the core at the front pucks, both sides. Pucks attach with ski screws ala Voile's instructions, but I'm going to insert some of these instead. Real question is, what should I use for epoxy to re-attach the topsheet and core material to the board. Any good recomendations? I really do not wish to lose this one as I just split it in December, and haven't done any real backcountry with it yet. Thanks in advance, Jon.

Sinecure Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Tognar sells some stuff that's supposed to be good. Never used it myself. Link Here I suppose this posting is also a comment on the viability of making your own split board. Have others had success doing this? Seems to me buying a board made as a split would offer better durability and fitness for purpose. Any thoughts on this subject? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Dahl Posted January 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Will find the epoxy this week. I'd buy a factory split, except for the fact of not knowing exactly what I want. Tossing down $800 + for one isn't to be done lightly! I've got $250 in split kit and skins + $200 total in boards over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skategoat Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Jon: Just thought I'd throw this out to you - I bought a Voile Split Decision with no hardware. I'm trying to put together a splitboard on a budget so if you want to let the hardware go, I'd buy it from you. Never owned a splitboard so I don't even know what I need but what I have is in the photo (plus skins). Thanks, Henry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Dahl Posted January 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 You will need the specific pucks from Voile for this, as the kit pucks are different. Slider tracks and pins to go on top of those,also. Either Voile Mtn Plate bindings or Bomber splitboard bindings if you are using hardboots. Then go to splitboard.com and join the forums there, I'm on there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleaman Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Henry, IIRC Mountain equipment Co-op sells the Voile hardware. I cannot find it on the website but I think they had it in the catalogue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skategoat Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Thanks for the info Jon. And Flea, I remember MEC carried the boards and hardware but thought they stopped selling them. I'll check out the Toronto store. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
