In this episode, Noel Salas visits XTR Epoxy Pro in Oceanside, California for surfboard foam testing. Noel introduces Javier Huarcaya-Pro to share what makes XTR 10 so special. Javier compares XTR 10 to PU Poly foam and EPS foam with a stringer and actually runs some blanks over with his truck to show the durability of this extruded foam. The XTR 10 foam out performs with very little dents. The foam is 100% waterproof and can be customized with a super light glass job called “Carbon lite“ or, if you prefer, it can be glassed a little heavier for bigger surf. This remarkable foam core makes your board last for 3, 4 or even 5 years (says Javier) with very little pressure dents, all while keeping the original pop and snap like it did when it was brand new. Noel loves his “G-Skate“ and Peppa Twin with parallel carbon that is located on the heel and toe of the board making is sensitive and quicker than center flex. carbon. His “Red Tiger“ was made with a center flex carbon, which is more familiar to most and similar to a stringer. After thorough testing Noel says, “the new 'XTR10' Foam is the best on the Planet“.
