hmmm... I like this, but my checkbook can't justify the price.

How about a trade? One "yet to arrive" Nanotech Insect Mosquito for an undrilled red one? Can I justify that?

Hmm, yes, except after it arrives... Are they doing that for all their decks or something? Or is this a joke? At any rate, if/when you get I'm sure I'll have sometihng nice around to trade. lol

Blake I'm considering your offer. I have a dh deck I've been working on so I don't really need it. What color? Can you post a pic of it?

Thanks for the kind words Greg. The deck I made right before yours was the same but with an additional layer of 1/16 maple on the 3bb. I have it sitting here, it weighs 61oz (3.8lb). The core is 3/8" thick on the foamies so in theory thats the amount of riser you don't have to use. I run my bennet on two Khiro wedges, pulled out from the back so the screws go through the front most holes, dropping it lower (new school drilling).

A difference between the red/orange decks and the pink/purple thats hard to see is the nose flare on the core. This just stiffens the front foot area some. Pink and purp are not showing any signs of weakness up there because of the glass thickness but it will allow me to do lighter layups later. As I build these I keep tweaking the core shape. After buckling the edge of the 28oz Zylon/carbon deck the other day I have modified the core again for the next ones.

Blake, if I thought I could turn around and and sell it quick I would take you up on the offer but I'm really after some cash for materials ASAP and I don't want to try to deal with finding a home for yet another deck.

What are you currently riding for LDP? I may have some other decks laying around that might be of use to you.

thats good. all the other misfit decks i have are closer to slalom length and less suited than your trylam.
