Yeah, I noticed that when we played on a homemade board that the friction on the actual Caveman Curling board was lessened, which was nice. However, you're still not going to convince a lot of people (my wife) that the board is worth the money. Either way, I hope that people don't decide if a game is for them or not for them entirely based on my review - so, I'm glad that you were able to provide an alternate perspective. <br /><br />Thanks for the feedback!Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14011225292134198772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829360209113689355.post-55697708158495450612012-02-24T18:23:49.789-08:002012-02-24T18:23:49.789-08:00You're mistaken about the board. It's mad...You're mistaken about the board. It's made out of a special substance called Tyvek. Details here:<br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyvek<br /><br />It's terrific for two reasons:<br />1. It is extremely durable.<br />2. It gives the perfect amount of friction that the game needs, allowing precision in judging distance on your shots.<br /><br />Using another product would actually have been worse for the game. The quality and functionality of the board is just what the game needs, and as an added bonus it's portable too.<br /><br />For more details on this alternate viewpoint, see my full review:<br />http://boardgamegeek.com/thread/742557<br /><br />Cheers, EnderEndersGamehttp://boardgamegeek.com/thread/742557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6829360209113689355.post-29864222896579903262012-02-24T08:38:03.002-08:002012-02-24T08:38:03.002-08:00Great write up.

So this seems a natural fit.<br /><br />Shame about the board though - even a plastic mat could have suited nicely.<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Giles.caradochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07713625369443490430noreply@blogger.com
