Hope that helps.

and Gomiworks, it might not be a bad idea to list specs in inches as well. I know that it might be a pain, but it might bring in more buyers if they know the specs without having to look them up. but thats all on you

I'll do it for you on all your boards if you get me a discount :P

Thanks. You are right of course. I guess most people here prefer inches. So from now on... only inches, I swear. And of course you will get you a discount. You see, when buying from me everybody gets a discount. I'm hopeless when it come to doing business and will probably end up a very poor man one day if I continue like this

How much is that one model?

In my opinion, these boards would sell like hotcakes on the 'Fish.......

Absolutely beautiful
what wood are you using for the core?how do keep the plys lined up for hole cutting?

**Blix** · 11-19-2009 02:29 PM

I´d love one, but the concave seems a bit too mellow for my taste.

About the materials, the deck in the picture uses a birch framework mixed up with Divinycel foam dots. Since then I have changed the foam pattern and I have also replaced Divinycel with something called Airex instead. In my opinion Airex does an even better job. While cutting the holes a screws keep the plys in line.

And yes, on this standard model, the concave is not too extreme. It's about 0,73". That's the kind of concave that I prefer myself. Hovever, the concave can of course be customized.

I'm afraid couldn't tell how much one of those foam boards are just yet. Soon I will settle for a final design/setup and then I will come back with some prices if someone is interested.

Suppose I could theoretically. I haven't shipped any boards to the US yet, but I'm afraid that the total cost including shipping, taxes etc would end up ridiculously high. Shipping decks one by one is probably not an option.

Thank god shipping to Norway isn´t that bad!

Ok, I understand

I've never shipped to Spain either, but I have shipped to Germany and it was like 80 Euro or something for shipping a deck with almost the same weight. Spain ought to be something close to that. In a way quite expensive, but at least no taxes on top of it

Blix. Shipping to Norway shouldn't be too bad. I guess that could easily be arranged.

No problem. Just drop me a private message if you are seriously interested in a Catapultas foam board proto. I couldn't say no to selling a board, could I? Maybe we could find some cheaper shipping alternative?

Make it even lighter and shipping won't be as bad.

I'll probably hit you up when I get back to the states, and convince some other people to order stuff too so it isn't so brutal. otherwise I'll convince daddies boardshop to carry your boards.

Absolutely awesomely insane deck

**xjweezyx** · 12-23-2009 09:36 AM

if you ever take a trip out to NY or anywhere in the us for that matter bring a few boards. lol sick boards man. how much are they gonna cost. are they gonna be cheaper than other foam cores like wefunk and stuff? again awesome creations man i really wish i could get my hands on one.

So I'm wondering how important it is to plug those holes with foam... I mean the foam doesn't really add any structural strength does it? And I understand why you would want to plug those lungs with foam but talking specifically about the holes...
