:bigeyes: Damn bro! hope you have a speedy recovery.

I lived in San Diego for a while when i was a kid - you kinda just get used to it. glad it was not a major quake however...

i'm liking the idea of no two part foam to absorb water...

pole looks sick Andy!

that's what i'm going for.

did that... filled with foam, then did two layers of 8.5 under that area. and since i hit bottom so many times i reinforced the nose... one layer of 8.5 oz inside the entire nose area, then one layer of 26oz - i had to pretty much reconstruct it. then the outside with a Taylor Curtis carbon...

when i did mine last winter i did this: -roughed the sides with 60 grit and cleaned -filled bond line with epoxy mixed with 410 filler -1 layer 8.5 oz biaxiale - 4" wide strip over the bond line -1 layer 8.5 oz biaxiale - 8" wide strip over that -1 layer 12.5 oz texalium - full side -...

hell yeah... this way you two can get back to riding and not wasting time. tomorrow SW winds, 4 - 6 foot, high temp 67 degrees - sturgeon point is where i'll be around 5pm

keep it stock... use softscrub with bleach and a good scowering pad... nice and white again

cool... i'm gonna install a pair on my new(er) RN hull...

cool... thanks... what's optimum temp/humidity? I did my SN in the winter in the shop heated with a wood burning stove, about 85 degrees in there... low humidity...

ok, so one more question then... 2 lb foams saves 4.5 lbs of total weight - but structurally how would it hold up against a rider's weight and pounding on it? i mean 4.5lbs is 4.5lbs... LOL

i was thinking the same thing. i'd rather use SMC panel adhesive and maybe some SS pan head bolts with nyloc nuts on the inside... with a small backer plate for each. or would that be overkill?

really? that's it? aight cool...

not to threadjack, but do tubbies come with a backer plate of some kind? are they just screwed in or bolted? nevermind, just scrolled down further to see all the pics... i see screws...

that's what i used on my SN a few years back... the back end felt heavy to me though. anyone ever use the 2lb kit? I was thinking about doing this on my new RN project, and adding a little extra reinforcement under the tray.

that ski looks funny with a nose on it now... LOL

Looking good bro!

agreed. I've broken my blowsion buckles a few times. My new winter project ski will be getting a ratcheting strap.

:lmao:
