Default RE: Ace foam wings for slope soaring

I wouldn'tthink the Ace airfoil was suitable for a sailplane, but I could be wrong going on the slopes.

Washout? Can't do it once the core is cut. The core has to be cut with the washout in it, the foam is too rigid to twist.

Also, the Ace wing is fairly dense, intended to be used without sheeting. It may be heavier than you want.
