Carbon
Hi!
I have more friends and using more materials.

Polietilene - 10mm is good for Street Skates.
Aluminium - 5mm is good for Stree and Vert.
Carbon - 5mm is better than aluminum.

In one month, I think has my new carbon plates with Tracker contour.

Irene: Plate making Material question? (27. Sep. 2007 17:26)
 Has anyone used flat sheets of magnesium to make plates?
Is this material too soft to be thin?
It's supposed to be lightweight.

 What about titanium? Its pricey though. For bikes, its ultra lightweight, the top for race bikes and gives a smoother ride then aluminum with more narrow, stronger, lighter tubes. I worked in a bike shop lol. I have no idea how it fits in with plates though.

Sounds very interesting. I have the aluminium variant. Keep us updated with respect to the carbon plates. Maybe you also have a picture of the polyethylene plates?
