Clark Blanks

General Discussion
1

Does anybody really think that any remaining Clark Blanks are worth more than the blanks we can now get?

I have a dozen left from the ones that I have continued to shape.

Whatta you all think?

No, not worth much, IMO. Several blanks available today, are superior to Clarks best. Hell, Walker Foam was better. Sadly, they’re gone too.

I think my adjustable rocker table,hotwire,vacuum pump and a block of eps foam that cost me 20$ that will yeild 2 10’ longboards is the shiznit…and dont forget the sweet smell of epoxy!

Nah. You could probably get a few bucks more for one of them Clark Foam t-shirts than a std white FOTL though.

only for holy grail boards

for people like dartanYan

or sir galahad

I just cut out a blank I had since before hurricane iniki

a five stringer old super green with the old stencil

I bought a roll of 35m film to record the image of the sticker

making a spirt board for the makaiwa to come good .

since just after the hurricane the spot has laid dormant .

the range of foam is imense

and clark is such a narrow spectrum.

and the pricing is getting so competitive

in volume my friend russ has some unreal

discounted price scores in the last year

as to be legendary…

…ambrose…

funny this came up now.

i held a clark blank for the first time the other day. it was for sale in a shop north of me.

6’3" something. $25… if i had the room in the car, i would have bought it.

i can see why people liked them. felt really crunchy. like it’d shape easy.

Not only is Walker foam not gone, it is better than ever. ICE-9 hired Walker, bought his formula and most of his molds. So, take the Walker formula and add the computerized pouring system that ICE-9 had developed and you get the MOWSES formula. It has been getting extremely good reviews from top shapers for not only ease of shaping, but also durability.

I have a few left.They’re worth what ever is competitive on the market for it’s size,wt.,Stringers.

I prefer US Blanks these days… it’s a Clark on steroids.

I use my left over Clark blanks for boards made for charity events. The scarcity is a nice touch.
