    questions to take you guys down a rabbit trail, don't the solvents eat the styrofoam up when they start to glass over the styrofoam core of a surf board??? I know that styrofoam is pretty fragile when it comes to solvents...

    It was pretty cool to see that video from ElToro, I have seen bits and pieces of it before... Its amazing to me how easy that a pro can make the glass/resin work look...

    yep, remember when that was happening. right around '68-'69 popular thing to do. now all those old longboards (even popouts) are valuable to collectors. I didn't keep any old boards since I would trade them in for the "latest" model. when all the "cool" kids started surfing on 5 ft. fish style surfboards, I didn't adapt well & started waterskiing instead.
