News flash. Life is fatal. All dusts, resins and solvents are harmful to some degree or another. Surfing can kill you. Take proper precautions. Live your life. Enjoy.
Hey preacher, do you wear a seat belt in your car? Wear a helmet on a motorbike? Duck when someone throws a punch at your face?
Yeah, thought so. Life is fatal, for those who take reasonable and sensible precautions where possible without ruining the fun of life, it tends to be fatal a bit later. Mind the traffic won't you
I'll add that all sorts of things in the boardbuilding have been represented as safe, eco, not toxic yadda yadda yadda. When you strip away the marketing bullsheet its all toxic. Solvents and resins are toxic. Its just a fact of life. Some are just toxic in different ways or differing amounts. Its a toxic soup of chemicals that get hard and strong when combined. Best not to get any of it on your skin or breathe any of it in.
Yeah, everyone seems to jump on this (thanks to years of marketing bull shit being shoved down all our throats, bull shit I know well too) and assume I am looking for some pearly white (with a hint of rose) way to make a surfboard! I am not. Just curious about trying some other methods, and not for the environment's sake, as I don't believe most of the global warming massive bull shit industry based on typically fraudulent science. So there ya go, no tree hugger here. I know toxicity is everywhere, I know that the same people who preach about global warming actually push legislation to irradiate my kids heads every time they go to the dentist. It's all fucken bull shit. I am not on a drive to change the world, just fancied playing with some other materials, especially if it means I don't have to gear up with my full face air fed mask, and just play around a bit.
