Please Note: The Mahgoany Crokinole Board is an additional $6.99 in price.
This new Premium Beech or Mahogany Crokinole Board was inspected and supervised during manufacturing to ensure the quality would be top-notch. It has a hardwood veneer of 100% real mahogany/beech wood. This board is a full-sided tournament board and has many upgrades over the older versions released in 2010 including:
- Upgraded wooden box for the game. This new wooden box has twice as many holes in the top so both players have their own scoring track, not a shared track. The shared track worked great but was a bit of a problem when the score was tied. Also the holes on the scoring track have been re-worked so the pegs for the scoring are the same size as the pegs for the board. It just simplifies things for everyone.
- Improved quality control and manufacturing process so there will be very little damage/scuff marks on the boards out of the box.
- Better finish on the playing surface. In addition to 5 coats of lacquer/finish applied to the surface we have also applied a wax sealant to the top of the board. This will make the board faster right out of the box and while we still highly recommend an application of Carnauba wax be put on the board before playing for the best experience, this will be much better right out of the box too!
- This has the same specs as previous boards other than the above, namely the same 30.5" dimensions (26" playing surface, “Tournament Sized”) as well as solid MDF base with water-tight finish on the back to avoid the board absorbing moisture/humidity/spills and preventing the warping that many plywood based boards experience over time.
