"B" Stock

[Darktower]

i ordered this b stock yurf from hydroturf cause it was $35 cheaper per section it says it has ireggularities sp? anyone know what the difference is?

 

[Mouthfulloflake]

there MIGHT be a light spot, or some tiny bubbles in it.

IVe ordered several sheets of that, it sometimes has a blemish, sometimes it doesnt, its an AWESOME deal.

 

[Darktower]

hell yeah thats sweet for the price difference i figured what the hell but if its thats minor all the better thanx alot

 

[sflsurfrider]

sometimes the edges are a little distorted or 'burnt' or they have defects that were mentioned already. its still worth the money.

 

[Stukas]

I ordered two sheets, and there was one spot on the underside of one sheet that has some air bubbles in it, other than that, i couldnt find anything wrong with the either sheets top sides. Its a great deal

You can't order bstock with the 3m backing, can you? I just turfed a couch with the backing and saved myself at least an hour of masking :bigok:

Wow I had no idea they sold the B stock stuff, when I'm getting ready to order that is what I'll get.

 

[Darktower]

yeah youll be able to see if mine looks like sh*t cause ill have it on b4 i get down there on the 10th

all in all it's a screamin deal... minor blems that you can easy cut around

I did my square nose with it earlier this year... came out awesome. Well worth the savings for sure!!

I really like that grey Frosty..
My round nose project is gonna have that turf.

 

[demolition_x]

what foot holds are those frosty? i like them.


i like the turf too i have a sheet waiting to be put on when i do my footholds

 

[Frosty]

Thanks guys... yeah the grey looks pretty cool. I like it better actually... you can see the diamond mould better... looks tough on the ski!

Demo-x, those are modified 24:7 footholds. I did the normal foothold install with a new set of 24:7 2003 unniversal bindings, then modified them with some 32oz biaxial cloth. I considered the padding thickness and my shoe size to get the best possible fit.

I did the same thing on my RN, but had to consider the 25mm under pad, so they stick out a little more into the tray... and are arched a little higher.

The B Stock (Gray) is a little thinner than the standard grade material

The B Stock (Gray) is a little thinner than the standard grade material

.... and therefore easier to make tight curves.

.... and therefore easier to make tight curves.

That is true, but also easier to wear out faster, I have ridden my SJ maybe 10 times this year, already showing signs of wear at the footholds.......

 

[Mouthfulloflake]

grey B grade on all my boats.

ive ridden my white boat hundreds of times, and the only wear that is visible is where it shrunk up from sitting in the backyard in the sun last year.

if its showing wear, you should kick the gravel off of your shoes before getting on, or something.

that isnt normal in my experience.

Ive got some black turf also, and if there is a difference in thickness between the two it is VERY slight.

I have never noticed it, holding them side by side.

True. But my cats think my gunwhales are scratching posts, anyways, and for 25 bucks, I don't mind returfing every year.
Besides, maybe the third time it'll start looking good.

 

[Big Kahuna]

I returf about that often on average any how

I was just starting to wonder about the Sun. I have a habit of leaving the skis uncovered all the time in the yard. I dont care about fading, but If the turf is going to harden up or something maybe I ought to get a cover..
