RIPPING THE OPPOSTION TO SHREDS *PIC*

Wouldnt you also like a new boardie made of space age techniques learned in the kayaking industry? If so theres a winner of a gap in the boarding market: tough, cheap surfboards for beginners! Made in a similar way to kayaks, these boards are rotationally moulded from a plastic-based material. Using a new technique gaining publicity in overseas plastic industry magazines, including in the States. THE NEXT WAVE IN SURF TECHNOLOGY Solid Plastics International Ltd is the manufacturer of the new revolutionary Solid Surfboard, which is a fun surfboard designed specifically for learners and the entry-level market. Using a unique moulding process Solid Plastic International Ltd is able to produce a low cost, very strong, durable surfboard, with great performance capabilities.

Our boards have been designed by professional surfboard shapers with the learner in mind; this gives you a great looking board with nice ?rails? and a good amount of ?rocker?. Solid Surfboards are manufactured using the latest plastics technology for rotational moulding. Their composition consists of an outer skin produced from a robust ultra violet resistant polyethylene plastic (giving its external color), and an inner core that is made from strong polyethylene closed cell foam. With the outer skin and foam being of the same basic compositions, Solid Surfboards can be fabricated in an efficient single process enabling them to bond together avoiding the possibility of delaminating (common with other types of molded surfboards. Solid Surfboards are the ultimate first surfboard because they; ? Are very competitively priced ? Have great performance capabilities ? Are very durable and strong ? Look stylish and cool ? Extreamely good fun ? Revolutionary construction method “They are the next step up from a boogie board and much more robust than a normal surfboard,” says Solid Surfboards’ boss Paul Jones. “My dream is that someone goes into a mall and is not even thinking about buying a surfboard and then walks into say, a K-Mart, and there’s a whole rack of affordable, family boards, just like boogie boards.” http://www.solidsurfboards.com/

No worries, eh? Once I get a gloss coat sanded in it’ll smooth right out.

I still have my first board,a beautiful David Balcerzack sting from the 70’s.I love my first board.I did not keep my first beer cooler though, don’t even recall it.That plastic covered turd your pimping will go down like a snowman in July.Why don’t you try rotational molding some lawn furniture or something you can sell? I guess you want to be the low end “popout” producer? Go back to Korea or whever you came from fair dinkum

Fair, In the future, please put stuff like this in the classifieds. Thanks, Mike

Why is it that every time someone come up with something new, everybody chip in to put them down? A surfboard foam core that doesn’t need glass covering for strength sure sound interesting to me. Think about it, shape, sand blank, cover it(Spray? Strictly speaking you don’t need it since it’s a closed cell foam) and go surfing. You could even reshape the thing and just cover the reshaped part without hurting the structure of the board. Even if it’s not that strong, it obviously stronger than PU and EPS. I for one wouldn’t mind a stronger surfboard. Too bad it’s made from polyethylene which is one of the few things that epoxy doesn’t stick too AFAIK. Bdw. if you had a beercooler made out of polyetylene foam, WAY COOL. I din’t even know they made that. regards, Håvard

After reading the original post and reviewing the product website, it comes across to me to be another version of softboard technology. The original “skins” for the Morey Boogie were the actual skins for the core material - much more durable probably due to air curing or however that was done. Just a molded softboard. Am I missing something? Still waiting for the reshapeable blanks…
