Split board for kitesurfing

Hi all,
I’d like to show you a quick video about my split board for kitesurfing.

From a composites point of view the board was obtained by an infusion process in the bottom and a lamination on the top.
In the bottom I also tryed to mix spread tow carbon fabric with aluminized glass in order to obtain something different from a graphical point of view.

The board core is balsa wood.

And some pictures

Pure beauty… If I had that board, I’d hang it on the wall when I wasn’t in the water!

Looks great!

Thank, I’m pleased that you like. In this moment the wall of my laboratory is occupied by a previous model…:slight_smile:

with a special handle…

But a new model is coming…so does not have to wait very long to reach the wall

At first I wondered why the board was split but having watched the link it all made sense…destinations and airlines, lovely work.

Beautiful.

bei pezzi, complimenti!! :slight_smile:

impressive, I’m asking how you did the handle

I’m asking how you did the handle

is a manual work, you need to shape a foam and then wrap it with glass fiber, reshape, and then coat it with a single piece of carbon
