Nope, It's good old Baltic Birch. Red stain with a red burst, although it looks a little orangey.
It's 43" long and about 9 3/4" wide I think. It has decent concave and the flex is pretty nice.
I got the idea for the grip and my friend went to town on it. Collectively I'm just gonna guess it took him 1 1/2 hours- 2 1/2 hours.
I'm finishing up a slalom board I made as well and as soon as I snag a camera from someone in my family I'll put up pics

Me neither, I don't think I'd want to try with a lovely piece of music making wood like that.
I'm gonna try to get some more pictures up today
