Hi all,
I am saving money to buy the Swoard, But before this site came online I always wanted to build my own board. So here it is the Ablazespy ONE!
This snowboard is a result of 3 years of research. It has a floating nose, and a radius around 12,5m. I will tune and test this prototype soon. If anyone likes I can put down the results. Building cost 130 Euro!
PS. I am not competing the SWOARD, the SWOARD is the best EC-Machine there is!!!!!!!!

Looks nice, but..... where are the inserts?
230 euro? seems a bit expensive to me. I guess the material cost of my board was about EUR 170 and I used a lot of carbon. But I got a lot for free, i paid for about EUR 80.

Hi, here are the specs of my board,
Lenght 164.5cm
running lenght 153cm
nose width 25.5cm
waist width 21.2cm
tail width 25.5cm
radius 13.6cm (after recalculation)
nose lenght 11.5cm
tail lenght 0cm
stance width 49cm
camber 1.1cm
And for Tim the cost were 130 instead of 230 type O. And for the inserts they are there, but filled with wax and therefor not seen on this bad quality picture. When the board is tuned I will put on some color pictures.
Still do not know if I should paint the board any suggestions!!!
