Surfboard Ding

Postby Srkedzie » Sun Jan 17, 2016 5:17 am

This is gonna be very nooby. But I have this ding that didn't break the top layer of glass and is like a pressure dent, it's on the rail and bottom kinda. But when I push pretty hard it makes this creaky ish sound that's really quiet but still their. Here's the pic. Should I be worried. Also can't feel the crack on the board which is good.

I got it fixed a while ago where the guy put fiberglass clothe over it and another layer of resin but it still slightly creaks.

If it's watertight, then just leave it alone. If your skill is up to the point where that creak is affecting the performance of your turns, then maybe you can do something about it. But you'll just be wasting time and money. Reason ? - most likely you'll get a ding ( or finger grab pressure ) right in the same place, then at that time, you can send it in for repair.
