Yes more than likely it is the concave. Especially if it was 1 1/4"
less concave will make for less stiffness given that everything else is kept the same. By how much for your specific materials is something you will find out shortly

scrapping the press altogether, making a new one on the other side of the base. it was just way too much concave ( 1 1/4 inches). bad miscalculations on my part. this time im going for about 1/2 - 3/4 inches concave with an inch of rocker, trying to duplicate the comet fsm's, it felt awesome when i stood on it.
btw, i dont know if it is just the concave or what, but the board is super super stiff. do you guys think that it would be the same if i had less concave and rocker????

Probably not as much as you think, I still have a lot to learn myself. Maybe we could watch Pete and Ash at Glyde or Sakamoto doin their thing then we'd both learn something.
