    3.9lbs?!! how long does this process take? longer than a normal poly glass job?

    if these micro pocket rocket shapes are that much lighter I can't wait to see what XL - XXl size boards will weigh, will the weigh savings be as substantial?

    How's pricing? Hydroflex versus eps/epoxy?

    Pricing at the moment is about the same as EPS/Epoxy hand laminated.

    Besides the value it's an excellent choice for someone looking to lighten and add strength to their pu-pe shapes with out the heat sensitivities and performance quirkiness of the EPS cores.

    Wayne, how do you size a PR compared to a regular shortie? Thx

    Generally smaller and wider than their standard shortie, no specific formula. It really depends on the rider and what they are looking for.
