Do the color work after the glassing - use a skim coat of putty to smooth it out and get rid of any imperfections

Resistance to impacts is also important to me, so if either one or the other is less prone to dent or crack on paddle impacts it would steer my choice too.


Fiberglass beats carbon fiber for durability “toughness” because of the flexing properties it has.

I don’t think I am sold based on the weight - the CCS weights are listed as  11.85 KG and the BXF weight is 12.10 kg. You won’t really notice the .25KG. Based on my experiences from board repair, those number are probably close but not accurate considering the manufacturers use lots of fillers to hide lots of small problems etc. board could of felt heavier to if the deck pad was holding more water. Lots of small variables to notice a weight difference.

lets do a comparison

ccs:

1. light finish and weight saving
2.ultra light glass layer
3.full carbon kevlar layer
4.ud carbon rail reinforcment
5.carbon stance force patch
6.high density pvs sandwich (standing area)
7carbon stance reinforcement patch
8ultra light fibre area
9. super light cnc eps core

Bxf;
1. light finish and weight savings graphics
2.ultra light ud glass layer
3reinforcement rail band
4 extra strong wood veneer (stance area)
5. 45 degree biax fibre layer
6.90 degree glass fibre area
7light fibre layer
8super light eps core

we know number 1 on both the same they just added graphics to the bxf wording.
we also know that number 2 on both are the same they just added UD on the bxf which means uni direction, so basically its the same as the CCS.
So number 3 on the ccs seems to be the same only difference is the ccs is carbon and the bxf is most likley fiberglass. number 4 on the ccs is the same as number 3 on the bxf. number 5 on the ccs is the same as number 4 on the bxf only difference is carbon on the standing area and the bxf gets wood veneer. looks like 5,6,7 on the ccs are focusing on the standing area adding pvc and carbon whereas the bxf is wood veneer and and glass. 7 and 8 are the same thing for both. looks like the added some degree fibre angles to the bxf to just add more.

We are all moved into our custom home we built. I’ve been paddling San Diego, Carlsbad and Oceanside. I got back into working on boards.

Do it. I love riding my Honda 450X - we have a Polaris RZR 4 seater but nothing compare to the bike ;D

Good to see you back, I look forward to seeing whatever is next for you and your remarkable talents.
I’ll most likely continue working on board stuff, I still get a lot of emails and text messages asking when I’ll be working again, and they want to drop boards off etc.

Hey Guys, I’m back. Not sure what happend to my last Account but i couldn’t get through. Haven’t been up to any repair work lately. Me and the wife sold
One and house and built another in the mountains with some land out of the city and away from the ocean. The closest beach is Oceanside, although I’ve been paddling SD and will be this Wednesday AM. Selling the house and moving away has been one of the best decisions we made,
Although I can’t just take a 5 min ride to the beach I can now ride my dirt bikes and Side by side right out my garage into thousands of acres of Land.  8)
