Default Wing Construction - all balsa or sheeted foam?

Not touchy at all. You just made the comment about foam wings being surf boards. So, I replied accordingly

I build both types of wings, and have never had one fail.

As far which is stronger, take a look at what the sailplane guys are doing to make both built up and foam wings incredibly strong while remaining light.
