Carbon Fiber Evo

[NewBoarder31]

I was looking on daddies and i saw this evo on the second page that cost $962 dollars! Kind of out of the ordinary don't you think?

[Alpha06]

It's made from K-rimes's stem cells. (nondifferentiated S cells)

Expensive but light. Same performance as the wood evo though.

[DK525]

with smokeys it's just as havy if not more then a regular evo with grizzlys

[NewBoarder31]

Then wats the point? Has anybody bought one?

[243racing]

A lighter board is more agile than a heavier one. A light one will react instantly (or near instantly) which a heavier one may have a bit of lag. A lighter deck is faster off the line as well.

[Zap]

less weight is more agile, quicker on turns, better control, less drift, better speed control, the list goes on.

[DK525]

what a lag of .6141651 ?

[CasterTown]

what a lag of .6141651 ?

minutes, yes. Thats a little more than 30 seconds of lag.

It's lighter, stiffer, and machined to tighter tolerances than a standard wood evo.

so just like your sig is it worth it?

[Alpha06]

The wooden evo is already stiff as hell. By stiffer he means extremely freaking stiff. If the holes are drilled correctly the tolerance issue becomes a non issue.

$120 vs $500, no I would not say that it is worth it.

[dgsblb]

I wouldn't say that it isn't worth it, it just depends on your situation.

agreed. if you were racing every weekend/serious competitor/sponsored... the difference between a CF evo and a wood evo makes total sense.

remember, for serious racers- a 10th of a second is a long time.
