Unique setup! I like it. Sweet square!
Anybody else got some pad jobs they'd like to show off?

I am also looking to see how others have done their padding 25mm. Mainly, how to taper or finish off the rear lip.

The taper part for the sides of rear lip of tray is pretty easy, I just shaved off to a taper on each side with some gardening shears. Hardest part for me was leaving excess to fold over down into the seam of the 26mm, had to stretch with heat gun in some areas. I just tested my holds on saturday and they were too roomy, so I made a set of quickie ice cream sandwich bricks and glued em to the tops of my holds. Hopefully I dont have to rip em apart again.
Heres the old pic, you can see the 26mm taper on the edges
And also new pic of the funky ice cream sandwiches stuffed up in there. Not pretty but if it works it works

Holy crap, you really had to tighten up those holds! Is it hard to kick into them now? They look super tight now.

After glueing the padding you can sand it with a grinder equipped with an 80 grit sand paper disc. Sand pockets for your boots, ect. Shape the rear lip however you want it.

Hell yeah, she is tight!! I used the 9mm padding sandwiched between the old black 6mm turf I had and the new 6mm white turf. The 9mm pad is reeeally plush so Im thinkin shell loosen up a bit after I slam up in there a few times. But weeeelll seeeeeee, maybe test ride this weekend.
That black plush pad isn't supposed to loosen up ever. lol
I'd like to see some pics of people kicked into their holds to see how good they cover their feet too. Now's a great time to go into your garage, kick in your holds, pretend like you're giving it some brap to get inverted,and snap some pics while you're at it!
