DiveBomber Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 just had mine delam looks kinda fixable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tahoetrencher Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 I've got two that "look kinda fixable". One has only a hairline sep at the tail block. The 162 was a great holding board. Anyone ever successful? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubz Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Mine delamed and tried to epoxy, but no luck. It sux b/c I loved the board. Its still ridable, but not worth fixing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tahoetrencher Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Anybody ever try Gorilla Glue and t-nuts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiveBomber Posted March 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 any chance either of you want to send me those boards see if i can fix em? I had my board polished and even if it becomes a wall ornament, id rather not make it any worse that it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kipstar Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 what is the shock absorber that looks like a bottle of drink on the front? Is that standard, or is that what the racers use these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gleb Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 do they make boards with topsheets like that any more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDY_2_Carve Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 do they make boards with topsheets like that any more? Lots of Volants and Aggresions with metal topsheets go on Ebay. They won't be polished like his is though. You'll have to do that yourself or pay arm+leg for somebody to do it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gleb Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 thats cool thanks. Defintly won't be getting one for a while. Still learning. It defintly would be a chore keeping it all polished up like that. Do they delam often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 id like to not do that holy ****! That's a gorgeous board, though I bet the bottom of your chin gets sunburned on sunny days. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bricky Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 The tip would look nicer with some 3/16" stainless pop rivets. But then you wouldn't have the pleasure of wrecking the P-tex of any softbooters and skiers who run over your tip/tail!! Bricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr D Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 All that bling and the opportunity to bite back too. I'd have to install a set on the tail just to fend off the idiot on fence posts who is always behind me in the lift line:angryfire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gleb Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 just out of curiousity, what is the average price of a volant on ebay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tex1230 Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 According to the hardbooter price almanac - looks like the good ones usually go for $150-$160 check alpinecarving.com - Scott has a great tool for historic ebay prices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
