    to make things more difficult there’s also the jones mt twin to consider. no experience with it whatsoever but it looks fun. it’s supposed to be camrock but a lot of owners say jones boards look more rocker throughout than having much central camber.

    for ‘cheapest’ you’ll probably find that being the k2 panoramic. 154 is…

    And I don’t know how S-rocker would translate to ‘fun’ and ‘playful’ for you spinning around on it; its a very directional camber profile (cambered with only the nose rockered). But the Rome Whiteroom is a twin-ish shape with the directional S-rocker and slight setback (2cm), so if that type of design lands well enough…

    My experiences with the never summer RC profile (same overall idea as lib’s c2 profile) have been good for float, but with twin models you don’t get the added benefit of a lot of setback or taper for extra flotation. I kind of agree with the seesaw description to an extent, I think it’s a really fun design but like…

    picture??? does the notch make it so you can pop it in and out, while it’s pretty locked when the highback is vertical for riding?

    i’ll have to take some pictures, sounds like you have the right idea. i ran the highback screws loose and i could slide highbacks on folded down. when you rotate them up, how…[Read more]

    would there be any reason not to do a few coats of urethane to waterproof it, and then 1 or 2 light coats of epoxy just to give a bit more damage protection? is the epoxy going to bond to the urethaned surface as well as naked wood?

    That’s exactly what I’ve done and it seems to be holding up nicely. The epoxy on…[Read more]

    Hi. I’m doing my first DIY with a friend once our kits arrive in the mail (in NZ), so sorry if these are questions with obvious answers.

    -do you know what size wood screws work best? I’d like to do this, but am pretty sure the kit isn’t going to have any screws.

    thanks for the help, much…
