Does this need attention? - Snowboarding Forum

basso4735 · 12-12-2010, 09:18 PM

Now I don't want to get yelled at, and I know topsheet scratches happen, but I'm worried if this is more than a scratch. If it isn't, great and I could care less what it looks like. I just don't want to ignore this if it is worse than a scratch and get it fixed. This happened after my first trip out with my brand new Ride prophet. No crashes or anything, could have been the chair lift line, who knows. So, Im only wondering if this needs to be taken care of or forgotten.
Thanks

Looks purely cosmetic to me. If you are really concerned though, you could put some clear nail polish over the scratch, but id say your better off using the time it would take to do that riding, or drinking a beer or something
