Ride plate question

[Speedfreak]

I ride only flat water and have been riding with a stock plate for years. The ski I just got has a CF wamiltons plate on it. It is pretty long. What should I do with it? I need a flat water friendly ride plate. I am afraid that the length will just cancel out the trim. So should I..........

1. Sell it
2. Chop it off and cut a "D" or a "U" in it

I dont see how carbon fiber ride plates help....

I cut my stocker... cheap easy....

Sell that baby and buy something usefull

cut it, it depends what you want it for...back flip, barell rolls, recreational freestyle....

 

[Waste Land]

cutting it will expose the CF and it will delaminate if im not mistaken.....

I would like to say all the above but I don't see a BF in the near future

And Jaremy rideplate in his "got trim" pictures shows a CF plate that has been chopped and "D"ed

they can be cut with o probelems. hopefully it is not filled with foam.i highly doubt it though. if it does get ruined just lay a strip of glass over it

I use a CF Wammer plate w/ home D-cut with no problems.

good to know, I've got a non cut wammer on the shelf. the wammer plate fits much better on my ski than the square stocker I have on there now.
