POWDERSURFSKATE- Model #2 (thinking of a name)

I've been dreaming of making a proper powdersnowskate for a long time, this is what I came up with.. (based on a hundred different designs, mostly burton, and the old winterstick)

Its has a wooden sandwich construction wood core, skinned with a super slippery piece of 4000 gallium sintered CLEAR base (ptex) ...the maple wood should keep it plenty strong with flex....
.



translucent base is epoxied to the core under a severe amount of pressure......... hint of kick in the tail

just have to trim the excess ptex away followed by sealing and gripping, it should be ready for a run this weekend....

.

production note: I'm currently pressing a mini version of this exact board for Jordan who's throwing a snowskate demo out in Nelson, British Columbia...They're having a city street courted off and covered in snow to hold a snowskate demo, while the winter olympic torch passes thru their town. (on the 23rd? ) Sounds like an amazing time wish I could bail and go, for now I just hope my mini-fish gets finished and shipped out in time..... pics to follow

the local snow up on the toll road by me is still super dry, it has provide so much fun this past two weeks I haven't check a surf report...maybe a dusting tonight who knows
...thanks for checking in
