Pack x 4 Longboard mold 1" (2.5 cm) to custom shape

Pack x 4 High Density Foam Mold 1" (2.5 cm)

This high density foam mold is extremely resistant and easy to shape.

We recommend using the surform scrapper to shape your mold.

This is the same tool our own builders at Roarockit use to shape their personal boards with, so you know it works!

These molds are ideal for building custom longboards, such as drop decks. 

Tip: Tape a backer the size of your mold to your custom mold, to help keep your mold stiff when pressing. 

Maintenance

Once you have your ideal shape, cover your mold in tape, so as glue doesn't stick to it and it is protected from impacts. This will help your mold last longer. 

Occasionally foam breaks in transit. All is not lost! While it makes it harder to work with, you can put it back together (unless it is crushed beyond repair). Join the broken pieces together using contact cement (don’t use spray adhesive, it will melt the foam).

A simpler fix is just to tape the pieces back together on the bottom side, the side you are not shaping. This technique can also be used for changing the size and shape of your mold. 

FAQ

Can I hot-wire the foam?

Certainly, however that is a one-shot approach. You need to know exactly where and how your wire is going to cut. There is no room for mistakes!

Why use high density foam?

It shapes nicely and stands up to multiple uses.

Also, if you are shaping radical bends, it will not wear down as easily.
