Epoxy is the way to go check out the Bruce Jones 10 epoxy board.....good stuff.

Click here to see the profile of this user 		Re:epoxy longboards pros and cons - 2006/12/21 20:24 I've got a surfteck board which is a 'hybrid' shape, somewhere between a mini-mal and a shortboard. At 8" its not small, but its turns beautifully, and is a joy to paddle and stable in take-off.... not radical, but a great allround board and indestructable when travelling. If I can take just one board this is it.. Only problem is I can't duckdive it (its too bouyant, or I'm not fat/strong enough)...

I have a shortboard 6.0 surftech. In comparison with my normal old board i only see pros. lighter, faster, stronger... in addition the foam is impermeable, it means that if you break all the epoxy layers (i never see that), the foam dont absorbs water.
