DWINDLE EPX RESIN DECKS
At Altered, we are extremely proud to be featuring Dwindle manufactured epoxy (EPX Resin) decks for our updated 2009 Production Series. Skater's world-wide recognize Dwindle/DSM Premium Woodshop as an industry leader producing famous brands including: Almost, Darkstar, Enjoi, Blind and more!
Epoxy is more aggressive than the normal water-base glue, which is the industry standard. Since epoxy is so strong, less of it is used yielding a considerably lighter, better deck. It's also much stiffer, which keeps it performing longer and it also holds together longer than normal skatedecks. For ALTERED™ Electric Skateboards this improvement is simply awesome, for it resists the stress placed by the extra weight, vibration & twisting strain, which we place our boards in.
The epoxy resin locks the plies together much tighter while the decks are in the presses during manufacturing. Normal decks always bounce back a bit as the newly pressed veneers fight their new shape of the intended mold. These EXP Resin decks heavily reduce this bounce back. What it all comes down to is we are striving to make the best electric skateboards on the planet and ALTERED is the original & the best! Accept nothing less!
