Is there a source for 1/8" Evazote, or similar, wider that the 20" sold by Gossamer gear?

Thank John,
I checked a couple, like Speer, but no luck. Do you have a specific recommendation?

Speer was the one I couldn't remember. Oware has thicker versions in wide, but not in the thickness you want. I'm not entirely sure it is evazote.

Suluk 46 sells some a bit wider than 20 inches, but it's Plastazote instead of Evazote. Nevermind, it's 1/2 inch...

EVA grade on 04/09/2012 13:35:05 MDT Print View

Thanks, I had found that site. They list "EVA grade" mats. Is that the same thing as Evazote?

Not necessarily. As I understand it, there are grades of Evazote is made with different fractions of EVA.

Recent Order from Foamorder on 04/10/2012 07:44:39 MDT Print View

Got a 40x80" sheet of 1/4" EVA from Foamorder. Total weight is 15.3oz

Similar to what GG carries, but feels a bit denser. Not much.

Foamorder has 1/8" 40x80 in their clearance section for $9.99 each, but wants over $20.00 to ship 1 or 2 pieces. Ouch!

Thanks for the tips on 04/10/2012 11:16:15 MDT Print View

Prolite only has 20", about the same as GG.
Thanks Stephen for the beta on Foamorder material.
And thanks Larry for the tip that it is in the clearance area on Foamorder. The regular price is $23 a sheet, so $10 a sheet is certainly a savings.
I placed an order for 2 sheets.
