fellow surfboard riders,
Any of you have any experience on these? have researched the web, but looking for personal experience either the supercharger or triple x construction. Look really light, flexible and strong. I think Tom Curren and Patrick Rebstock use the supercharger construction and getting me interested for my next stapless board.
cheers
mike

My brother has been using Hydroflex to make his race boards and their strength and quality is outlasting many of the other production race boards.
Good stuff.

are these biehl boards applying the glass right into EPS with the hydroflex tech, or part of a sandwich build?? (i.e.: hydroflex under or over a sandwich skin....)
very interesting...

Thanks, what construction does he have, the supercharger or the triple x?
We be good to hear from someone with one of their boards regarding the flex v light weight v strength. These 2 constructions look very good, just interested in the tunability of the supercharges flex.
