No its not, its very stiff, poly urathane is more flexable and a hell of a lot more durable. Thin thin layers of fiber glass, like 1 or 2 sheets is flexible and not durable, breaks very easily. But reinforced plastic fiberglass, flexible, no its not, very very stiff.

Yes, fiberglass is often referred to as fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP). This term is used to denote the composite material made of fine glass fibers reinforced with a plastic polymer resin.
No. Fine glass fibers are permeated with plastic compounds or resins to combine the strength of glass with the durability of plastics.

Glass-reinforced plastic, more commonly known as fiberglass, is known for being light and strong. Fiberglass has health problems concerned with it. Due to some glass fibers being considered carcinogens (cancer-causing), it is labeled a health concern. It can also irritate a person's skin, as well as eyes and lungs.
Plastic bags can be made stronger by increasing the thickness of the material, using reinforced handles, adding gussets for extra reinforcement, or incorporating materials such as nylon or polyester to enhance strength. Additionally, improving the bonding techniques during manufacturing can also make the plastic bags stronger.
Alpine snow skis are typically made of a combination of materials such as wood, fiberglass, metal, and plastic. The core of the ski is usually made of wood for stability and responsiveness, while layers of fiberglass and metal provide strength and durability. The top layer is often a plastic or composite material for protection and aesthetics.
Fiberglass is commonly used in construction for insulation, roofing, and reinforcement in composite materials. It is also used in the manufacturing of boats, automobiles, and aircraft due to its strength and lightweight properties. Additionally, fiberglass is used in consumer products such as surfboards, bathtubs, and sports equipment.
