Looking at getting a new race board but is carbon stronger than glass or ast construction is the extra money worth it or are they quite fragile.

Carbon is are stiffer and lighter so you get slightly more forward drive from your efforts but i,m not sure if the raceboards are stronger in one construction of the other.When you are heavy (90kg+) and or do are races (or have race ambitions) I would advice carbon. For just touring I would go for the glass version.
