Among those things are that the board itself absorbs everything in the road (you compensate for this with your risers and leather, which is cool) and has certain flex patterns that a vlam cannot provide. So simply put, both types of boards, I think are the best within there own category. Your board brings something amazing to the table that the boards that pavedwave described cannot and visa versa. However, if you come onto silverfish and promote your own boards, then proceed to insult other peoples hard work and inovation people are gonna start thinking "bonchi = dick." I'm hoping that what you did in this thread was a one-time thing and that you won't continue to do it, I think everyone here would be willing to look past it, and it would help if you provided an apology.
Dear john,
i'm making this quick pardon me
not v-lam solid white ash
synthetics do offer things that my can't, and white ash can't be duplicated by synthetics.
the risers abosrb nothing, they give lateral support to the Ash, leather does take away some vibrations metal on wood no good. I don't recall insulting people. if i say that i don't like the feel of a loaded dervish, that is my opinion, why should you or anyone else get mad and throw insults and labels as quick as possible(other than that is fun for a lot of people). Go over my letters and show me where you think i crossed the line, took too much liberties and insulted people.
Your pal Pual
