    I don't know the difference between the poly and big foot, but E-glass is electrical fiberglass, its nice and strong but not as stiff or strong as S-glass, which is structural fiberglass, its more stiff, has a more rigid feel in the water and alittle lighter because it requires less epoxy for the same amount of strength.

    the big foot is part of victorias recycled product line and it only comes in one size 56.7x21.5 made for bigger riders the weight limit is 170-220. and the poly comes in alot of sizes and made from polyester resin.s-glass is about 30% stronger than e-glass,i did alot of research on victoria and i finally went with a poly carbon which should be done any day.hope this was some help for you

    Poly, S glass. Unless you are huge, don't get the bigfoot...Even if you are huge, go with vic's biggest size for a poly
