Tip protector for the SWOARD!

Post by roger » Thursday 31 March 2005, 22:36

For all you guys worrying about delamination!

Drill 3 holes or silicone, or maybe glue the protector on your ExtremeCarver if you don't like the idea of drilling on the board.

For the problems of delamination on my swoard I would need a complete rubber cover... maybe I'll put a condom on it...

Yeah, that would also protect it against all sorts of diseases found in ski resorts! However, this protector is just covering the less sensitive part and does not decrease the friction during horizontal positioning of the body! :wink:

I wonder how it would fit on Swoard's nose, as Swoard has nose, which is quite different from other boards? Do you have any experience with this protector, how flexible its plastic is?

It fits well, altough the swoard's tip is slightly different. The plastic bends quite easily.

NOSEGUARD

Post by Hans » Sunday 3 April 2005, 1:56

Use this one at the tip of all of my boards for protection.

Are the protector ths same as the one that is original equipment on Volant snowboards? Do they stick well and dont fall off the board?

Yes, Roger
They are the orginal ones that are on the Volant boards. No they don't fall of. They are glued well. And they give an extra rubberglue with the package to get the surface between the protector and your board an extra protection. I will soon post a picture of my swoard with a white protector.

Guard for tip SWOARD and Pogo

Post by Hans » Monday 4 April 2005, 12:27

Guard for SWOARD could have been a little bit more cut. But it stays there so no hassle. The Pogo has also a tailguard (SWOARD is too flat for that).
