Yes "make a hollie" can these boards load up and hollie??
I have been your instructions and i have noticed that you said that the top
sheet of the board can come off if dinged or banged around..In the future
are you going to make the boards a little bit stronger?
and are there going to be different models than what
you have now with different colors?

Ollies> yes the swoard can make ollies it has lot of juice within, thanks to the carbon devices and the good wood core..
It seems that this warning makes people believe that our SWOARDs are fragile, that is absolutely wrong. Only the tail should be handled with care when put on the ground (no slamming !).
Jacques and Patrice are using this kind of tail since about 13 years without major problem.
But it's true that people are now used to over protected board tips and probably think that a board without protection will just break.
This leads us to think about a heel protection in the future, to reassure people.
As for models we already have 9 different ones, and as for color, we will stick with this one for at least the next season, and maybe more since it is really unique, and makes the board recognizable easily among carvers!

Okay, guys
I received my new Swoard 168 Hard two days ago, it seems this is the perfect weapon. The colors and the shape of the board are goodlooking.
The board is in a possitive way recognicable among the other 'stuff' of other brands. Having read several posts in this forum, this is the best deal/board you can get for extremecarving. Keep on going, don't change the colors. Only one thing, you have to be careful with the top sheet.
I think, I will polish it with a carbodywax to strenghten it.
Greetings, Hans
Have some nice carves and live with joy.
