with the sets we experimented with, we also found that the part only failed near the attachment point. We couldn't work around this flaw very easily so we used something we could repair more quickly. instead of carbon, we decided to go with .5'' schedule 40 steel conduit. it was almost as light, easliy bent to the desired shape, and very durable. we bent one fork twice throughout the regional, requiring about 10 seconds of repair time (bending the tube back by hand).

Were these vacuum bagged? Infused or wetted by hand? Also, did you apply any material to the handling surfaces with a higher cof?
