"oh and have been workign on a few prototypes, what were trying to do is not try to get the lightest board possible, but try and develop a midrange(pricewise) racespec deck with a decent weight which currently doesnt exist, so that people can upgrade to a higher end deck with not as much $$$.

So what were aiming for is a deck that is a decently quick layup and lower material cost build while using renewable materials where we can, aiming for 3lbs on the button (if we can get less we will) with a retail going for around $350 which puts it alot less expensive than similar decks that weight either more (rayne deelites), or a couple onuces less

oh and this is ginger she likes carbonfiber balsacores

And we have almost nailed the layup, just needs tweaking for torsional stiffness and weight reduction and have been hitting right on the 3lb mark if not a few ounce more on some of the protos.

and these protos will probably go up for sale eventually for discounted prices so keep an eye out


would be looking at $225 for a bb/cf rumrunner

$350 (estimated) for the balsacores
