those are the ones Joe and I made. We made some originally with an old beam from a nacra but it wasn't stiff enough. These are actually overkill and could be lesser thickness. Much less expensive than the carbon ones. Once you cut holes in them to lighten them some then they don't weigh a whole bunch more than the carbon ones.
