Board edge damage. Fixable? - Snowboarding Forum

zeeden · 02-25-2013, 03:34 PM

Just bumped into my buddy and we both went flying.

My board ran into a metal sign post.

It is a bad cell phone pic.

The edge is bent near tail/tip. Base is cracked but the wood looks good.

Is it fixable DIY or can a shop fix it?

Pry it open. Get the epoxy in there and then clamp it between 2 flat surfaces and heat it to 60c if you can. Doesnt hurt to tape the top sheet and base either

FInd a pro repair shop, 20bux and it will look really good.
