Which side of the bow
« on: January 08, 2010, 09:15:58 pm »
           Asking because i don't know!
  What do you go by,to determine which is the belly side or face side of a board bow?Is it the look of the wood,or the straightness of wood?
                                                                                                                                                        Ernie

me,i just look at it to see if it has any bend and use it as reflex
most boards will have some warpage,so i try and use it to my advantage
but you must make sure the grain is good to start with
i always wanted a harley,untill it became the "thing to ride"
i ride because i love to,not to be part of the crowd
