Lots of different things. Mostly by finish, the use of carbon UD instead of normal carbon, we found a very high quality glass fibre with a tighter weave. the use of a light weight filler to fill the sandwich before laminating. Tighter insert holes. The Dyneema is still the same. These changes were d...

Hard to say if this is impact, but there is no visible imprint of an impact so it looks like something that should not happen so could be garantee. Is it soft? If you want we can look at it now but it can also wait till there is a better situation as long as the board does not take in water.

Everyone will have catapults at times. It just depends on if they hit right on the nose or not, if the mast hits the water or the board first and if the board is kept firm or if it can move with the impact.  We have a lot of customers without nose damage for many years. And nearly everyone will...

From the JP website:<br /><br /> • Regularly check your board for holes, coming from any damage.<br /> • In case you find any damage make sure, these are sealed before further use.<br /> • Use an original JP Nose Protector to protect the nose of your board from damages occurred by impacts.<br /> • D...

Another thing to consider is weight, The production HDD´s are stronger but also a LOT lighter than normal production boards. A 77 HDD usually weighs between 5.9 and 6.0kg, our production tolerance usually is quite a bit less than what is stated on the website. The HDD´s we make on Fuerte are about 4...
