While waiting for the killer 75cm slalomboard design by Mr. Love
I decided to start making some lightweight parts for the new board.
Today I finished my first sample of a Custom Lightstrap made of EVA and Kevlar, 37 g dry.
Next thing is to make some ultrastiff assy carbon plates for max pressure and easy adjustment.
@mr love Thank you Martin, nice to hear. Sorry, but I became a little impatient when I saw your latest design in the design software thread. Awesome board which certainly deserves to be built (and of course its own thread here).

So here's the top secret 'process': 12 mm bottomsheet and 2 mm topsheet with 50 mm Kevlartape inlay, glued together with industrial glue. Edges trimmed with sandpaper.
Yes, it's a stickback tape, but I glued/sewed it anyway. The reinforcement is a 100mm piece of tape wrapped around the main strap. Time will tell if 3 layers are strong enough.
