Is this board worth repairing?

Postby CurtBoswell » Wed Jul 27, 2016 5:46 pm

I have had this surfboard for a few years, but I never had a chance to learn to surf. Is this board worth repairing and does anyone know anything about the board itself. I cannot find it on the Internet.

Not really worth repairing if you plan to learn on it! I is not a beginners board, it is waterlogged, foam shrunk and likely to be way heavier than it should be!
As a beater board just plug the obvious holes with solar resin and smooth of and ride to destruction.
Clarke foam is about all I can say.

Thanks for the advice. I'll just rent a board until I can a new one.
