The board weighs in at about 6.5 lbs.

EPS foam core, 1/8" Paulownia wood skins top and bottom with 1/4" solid laminated Paulownia rails.
EPS as some may know is a recyclable foam, and Paulownia trees grow 10+ feet per year, making them one of if not THE most renewable wood sources out there; slightly heavier than balsa but 10x the strength.

Ryan, what exactly does EPS stand for? Something like "extruded polystyrene"?

Sweet shape, btw.

Wrongo!

EPS = Expanded polystyrene.

XPS = Extruded poystyrene.

Don't mis-name them again!
