I was really interested in trying this out, but the shapers I contacted listed on the AST site as using it, are not really doing it anymore? I’m getting the picture that there wasn’t much interest. I’m interested! Does anyone know who is using it routinely and comfortable working with it? I want a tuff board. I have an epoxy pop out modern fish for small waves that I’m happy with. Due to lack of flex though I’m looking elsewhere for a better conditions standard shortboard. Any suggestions on other materials/shapers I should look at. West Coast prefered.

For more info on DHP search the archives here but in a nutshell DHP has its own inherent problems. 10x more expensive, room for overnight heat cure = more$$, cant airbrush or use regular laminates. May want to look into someone that does Epoxy.
