Can you ever have enough FOAM!?!?!

[Idok]

was walking around ACE the other day and spotted this pipe insulation....Have been looking for a black pool noodle to cut up and put ino the REV pole but this worked perfectly!

each of the larger pieces has one of the smaller ones inside it.....had a bit of extra so I put them in the hull



anything you can do to right the boat when it tips upsdie down...

Another freestyle foam product bandwagon in the making. :biggrin:

nice... it'd be nice to open up the hood and shove it full of foam... if my WDK liner ever separates I'll remember this thread.

I did shove a piece into my F1 hood....you dont want to fill it too much full of foam, or any water that does enter will go directly down the tubes...



this product is entirely unrelated to the freestyle sponge which happens to be the greatest freeride product ever invented :love::27::squint:

You know that stuff deteriorates mega-quickstyle when exposed to the elements, right?

i cant read any of this.. im staring at ur avataaarrrr :hail:

 

[Idok]

by elements do yiou mean water or UV light????


it will only have light exposure when its at the beach, and even then its on the underside of the pole...

I do question its integrity with H20 though......but even if this doesnt work, there are other tube foams availible..

a little of both.

that stuff breaks down pretty fast.. good idea though. if it works.

if it doesnt work I will try a pool noodle......I will keep an eye on it though to make sure it doesnt break down

anyone remember:

they ing rocked it!!!!!

 

[Idok]

im going to overkill YOU!

the pole foam is a great idea, the hull foam might be a bit U-O/K


but again, you can never have enough foam

 

[Wolf Child]

here's an Idea for ya.

Take a large motorcycle tube ( largest diameter you can find, like an 80/100x21 ) fill it with slime then cram it in to the pole cavity then inflate.

thought about that....actually thought about modding one into a "tube" (ie straight)...

and then doing it...never thought about the slime though....techincally, coudnt we just use an old tube for that???

as long as it doesnt have over a (1/8"?) hole, the slime will seal it and and you should have no problems.

I'f you figure out a way to re vulcanize the tube after cutting it to lay stright, let me know how, plz.
