Read about this 20 years ago. Not sure surfboards are a good application, 100% of the weight needs to be structural and unreacted polymer isn’t. Also adds too much expense and can’t address catastrophic failures. Cool tech though.
Hey Greg!
Haven’t logged in for a while… Stoked to see you here. Been working in my garage to get my shop back in shape, or at least my head, so I can get back in the shop… Hope all’s well.
