I tried a Roam style board, I laminated two 1/4" pieces of wood together with some fiberglass in the middle and where the bindings mount, but I couldn't get the rocker to hold after it had been in the sun for a bit. I probably needed a little more resin in it.

i also made a roam style board, but it broke first ride, so it wasnt really worth it

Check out my profile. I am not riding this one any more, I've made one that looks similar in shape to the liquid force balance, but like the one in my profile for the paint job.
