Glass Jobs on top deck

Postby Johno » Tue Feb 17, 2009 9:52 am

Just a quick one to all those shapers out there, do you put double layer of glass on the top deck were your feet go up to make it stronger and to resist dents more?

I ask this because my board whats creased seams to have thicker glass on one side than the other, its like it has cracked down a split line????

Yeah, generally the deck will have more glass (two layers) then the bottom (one).
But it also depends on the construction and type of foam.
