Im not sure if my board is a poly board or epoxy anyone have an idea? I suck at taking pictures but here are the dings

dings dont look to bad, if you have money to spend get it proffesionaly repaired but a ding kit should do. I think its fiberglass, is it light?
im not sure about the fiberglass, dont listen to me

I live far from the ocean unfortunately so no surf shop in my town. What can I use to patch it temporarily without the water getting in?

Yeah, duct tape does work to a degree.

My favorite, fill with wax, put some duct tape on top.

But that means you have to do a real repair, by grinding it out so all the wax gets out.

But the wax is hydro-phobic, so it repels water out.
