Snowboards, 1:24

So, I didn't have all my tools out for my RX-7, but I needed to build something. I got pretty inspired for something different, so I made a couple snowboards to go on a ski rack on top of a Civic hatch. Nothin' real exciting here, just me being bored and wanting to share.

Because I am an AF-aholic.

They are made with plasticard, cut to shape with the tips by rolling it under a pen. Decals are from my parts box. Yes, one is carbon fiber.

Those are hot .....

:naughty: :naughty:

nice snowboards.......gotta make some roof rack?

Hope you're not putting those things on a slammed car with high performance summer tires, or you'll get stuck at the ski hill!! :iceslolan Nice boards BTW!

clem..

They're cool!

Awesome !

the cf board is really cool !!!

AWESOME IDEA!! I love these little details! I think you should do a how-to for sure!! (also have you thought about making bindings? they should be pretty easy also out of same styrene sheet ;)

Great idea. What about the bindings?

Ah yes...

But what about bindings?

I've started to make snowboards on several occasions but have always gotten hung up on the bindings.

Those look great though.

:p

Puting up a HOW TO would be great plus it maybe would go up into the How to section and be IMORTALIZED for your great Ideas for improving the life of a modler....

i dont think people keep the bingings on their boards when traveling... they could get damaged... correct me if im wrong

Thats awsome!, love the CF one, i agree, they need some bindings, and i dont no about you but i used to leave my bindings on when i travelled, sometimes i would put my board in a board bag for long trips.

btw i forgot to mention how awesome those boards are :\ *useless post usage*

dude thats awsome!!! its kinda funny actually because im in park city utah now boarding. and shuberT i travel with my bindings on the board but i dont know what other people do

Dayum!! Those are sweet!!:)

Every single person I met keep their bindings on their boards when they travel. Great work by the way so far. Are you going to add bindings?

Thanks for the replies guys, and thanks for tips about the bindings. I was wondering and now I know. Check the model section for the how to you asked for.

Nice snowboards!

Thos boars are awesome i got to make some of those

Cool :)
