And I suppose, if you wanted it you could have double 10.  I know lots of guys who have single 10 with an 8 deck patch, but Tyler will make it how ever you like if he thinks its reasonable, all of his boards craftsman or otherwise are still made to your specs, he just does not glass the non craftsman himself,  sooo...again, you don't know what your talking about.  As for the danos they were both his standard glassing for those models, again just not strong enough for a traditional log.  His boards are good no question, thats why I own them, just not on the same level.  And YES, some people can glass stronger than others simply because they are aware of other things that other glassers are not.  Air temp, catalyst ratio to tint ratio etc, how you work the cloth, ever notice how all of tylers boards dont cover up the cut lap with a pin line, its cuz their f-ing perfect. When I ordered mine with a pin line he said he would do it because he thought it made the green board with white fin look asthetically pleasing but that he normally does not do it beacuse most glassers use a fat pin line to cover up their shitty cut laps.  With as many boards as I've been through and repaired he is for sure dead on.  Its that attention to detail that makes the difference all across the board. AGain, I own both, and yes there is a big difference.  And shaping a board is not just about glassing flow, its also how far you push the foam that makes it stronger to.  The foam gets less dense the closer you get to the center.  Its walking that fine shaping line that makes the board that much stronger.  And the truth is hes just better at it than most.  Why is that so hard to believe??????  Buy one and figure it out for yourself.  Don't just claim you know the difference.  Thats just wasting valuable breaths you could be using to get a second job to buy a Tyler.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAttached files"]], "columns": ["post_id", "thread_id", "thread_title", "post_number", "author_username", "post_date", "post_date_iso", "post_body"], "primary_keys": ["post_id"], "primary_key_values": ["9939"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.6579799992323387, "license": "Public Domain"}
