1. A composite comprising: an open ended core having a top and bottom surface, each surface having an end wall and wherein the core has a core pattern; andat least one continuous fiber;wherein at least one continuous fiber is oriented along at least one end wall of the open ended core and secured to the open ended core; andwherein the space between top and bottom surfaces of the end walls and the space between the core pattern are substantially void of resin impregnated fibers. 2. The composite of claim 1 wherein there are multiple continuous fibers and multiple end walls, and the multiple continuous fibers form a screen wherein the multiple continuous fibers are oriented over the multiple end walls. 3. The composite of claim 2 wherein the multiple continuous fibers in the screen are in tension prior to being secured to the core. 4. The composite of claim 2 wherein the multiple continuous fibers are impregnated within a resin before being secured to the open ended core. 5. The composite of claim 2 having a second set of end walls opposite the first set of end walls and a second set of continuous fibers are oriented along the second set of end walls. 6. The composite of claim 1 wherein the at least one continuous fiber is secured to the core while the continuous fiber is in tension. 7. The composite of claim 1 wherein at least one continuous fiber is impregnated within a resin before secured to the open ended core. 8. The composite of claim 1 wherein the open ended core has a biaxial pattern. 9. The composite of claim 1 wherein the open ended core has a tri-axial pattern. 10. The composite of claim 1 wherein the open ended core has a quadra-axial pattern. 11. A composite comprising: an open ended cellular core having a top surface and a bottom surface, the open ended cellular core also having end walls in a biaxial pattern;a skin having resin impregnated continuous fibers oriented in a biaxial grid pattern, the skin being secured to the open ended cellular core;wherein the impregnated continuous fibers are substantially aligned with the open ended cellular core when the skin is secured to the open ended cellular core; andwherein the space between the top and bottom surfaces of the end walls and the space between the biaxial pattern are substantially void of resin impregnated fibers. 12. The composite of claim 11 wherein the resin impregnated continuous fibers are placed in tension prior to being formed into the skin.
