Manufacturer issue - delaminating top sheets - Snowboarding Forum

imprezd · 10-18-2010, 09:17 PM

Anyone hear or have any problems with their boards delaminating on the top sheet? I heard this was an issue on burton boards. Obiviously hard riding and running into trees will be a problem but anyone know of this being an issue at random?

How many days are on your current board? I'm guessing it's far more likely to happen if 1) it gets used a lot, 2) it endures a lot of temperature changes during use/storage, and 3) it gets run over a lot by rude people in line

. My crappy morrow has 20 days on it and no sign of wear, ridden fairly conservatively (no rocks or serious accidents causing board abuse).

A few seasons ago the Elan factories third shift or something forgot to use resin on the topsheets with the capita stairmasters, the rome fuck can't think of the model, and a few others. When they'd hit the snow the topsheet would just coil right off. Delams happen but most are actually user error.
