tack talk (04/04/2014)

Like others have said if you make it too rigid and solid the loads will simply be transferred elsewhere through the part.  




This is just my opinion. To crush a honeycomb core between cf skins would require a very big impact. If you have hit something hard enough to do that then your in big trouble anyway so wont help the outcome.
Many of the comments so far are valid and well directed but having had to give up various sports/hobbies due to injury I know how frustrating it can be.
Careful design should result in something suitable but as mentioned by others be prepared for other potential injuries if you have a big off. All a case of calculated risk I suppose which is all part of extreme sports anyway.
