ABSTRACT:
An improved bodyboard includes a core, an outer covering enclosing the core, and, according to one aspect of the invention, a separation-resistant terpolymeric intermediate layer disposed between and adhesively bonding at least a portion of the core and covering. Preferably, the intermediate layer is a terpolymer based on polyethylene vinylacetate and in the form of a thin, slit-film bonding adhesive. According to another aspect of the invention, a bodyboard core is formed from a plurality of elongate cells joined together in a manner defining a honeycomb structure. Preferably, the cells are extrusions of a polypropylene material. Methods for forming the above are described as well.
