just wondering...
what is the difference in performance between fibreglass and carbonfibre, to my knowledge they are both used with the same sort of resins,
is it just that carbonfibre has the 'bling' name to it (so it can just sell for much more or its harder to produce thus making it more expensive,) or is it actually quantifiably better?
ps, how thick is onle layer of carbonfibre on a deck?

hey guys, myself and marine ply have a love hate relationship, i hate the fact that its so splintery, it hasnt got a very good colour, its plelaminated. but i love it because my dad rode over one of my blanks today with the concave facing down, like a speed bump and didnt realise, and when i politely told him to reverse, there was nothing wrong with the board
ps, im till looking for a better material for my next batch, hopefully i can get some bamboo
