I think the molded diamond is nicer. Its more plush (comfortable) and I think it lasts a little longer. The "b stock" grey diamond turf is half the price of the other colors.

Is the molded harder to work with sence it seems thicker? I would like to mold turf all the way arround the foothold with no splices but we will see im thinking thats going to be the hardest part is the turfing.

Re: What turf?
I also have noticed the molded seems to last longer...

Re: What turf?
molded is easier in my opinion to form around the footholds! Plus its cheaper and way more confortable.

B stock all the way.
