It's got about 0.5" of concave to hold your feet in nice and tight. and i didn't know how much flex it would have cause i used some thicker layers.but ooooooh baby the flex is nice, not too bouncy, but not too rigid. its perfect for sliding. if I were to show the flex it would be like this

Hard Soft

It's a little more hard for sliding which i like. It is layered Baltic Birch.

Thanks

i really like the design and the bottom is sick too, simple yet classy. Did you use a dimm press? nexty board you make, look into holly sole veneer for the bottom layer, i built one and put it on the bottom and it awesome. it looks like the floor of a nice yacht

Thanks guys. Yeah it's the virgin cause its the first board, and you gotta break her in a bit.
