Crossfire Sweet Potatoes

    I was just looking at the Sweet Potatoes in Crossfire tech on surfride.com (there's some sick ones!) and was wondering what technology is more durable:  FST or Crossfire?

    I'd say the FST corecell is a little tougher than bamboo, but crossfire looks so damn good it doesn't matter.

    I want a CF SP!

    yeah i think they are going to be really close in durability, but FST might have a slight edge.  The truth is, however, if you hit a board hard enough to break one, you'll probably damage both.



    That is how i would look at it.

    Cheers

    yeah, that's a good point. are crossfire the same density core as FST but the same thickness bamboo and RF?
