What is the foam that you guys are using to cover the top. Looks like surf foam that you put on the top of wakesurf boards. I'm making my ghetto gate for my 05 XLV now and want to put the foam on the top. Any good source for a nice big sheet?

I used hydroturf.

Like Russ said, he used hydroturf. a lot of people have ripped out their carpet and have used hydroturf instead. And likewise used it to make gunwale step pads and to line the bottom of their lockers.Quote:

Derek might not have the bstock on his website, but he can get it just fine. That is what I did, called and asked. Good luck.
found this at local Costco, JUST arrived after I found another (more expensive) source... UGHH...Quote:

Ordered two of these and got $10 shipping. Not too bad. Here we go.

Doesn't help you much now, but I would have gotten three of them and doubled up on the part of the gate that goes up against the transom.....mine broke cause the material was just too thin and the section at the bottom that went around the platform brackets was just too small. Maybe you could change your order before it ships??
Easy, Grasshopper. My wife will not miss the part that is going to thicken that board. Heh, heh, heh.
So she's saying thicker is better?
.....
No, I said she won't miss it. Oh, wait a minute .. . . . .
Should have never doubted you, always Mr. Prepared!! :)Quote:
