Its both actually. It’s sinew backed on the node side (power fiber side) which is the back on this bow. The belly is a boo lam also using toasted lam strip consisting of outer power fibers side. So essentially power fibers on belly and back glued together then sinewed on back. The belly was made smooth of its nodes and stained black for esthetics. It’s very fast bow and absolutely dead in the hands.

So double stretchy back with extra light core. Thats interesting ! I bet it is fast!
