Hows it going :).

I have a 6"8 epoxy circle one and i was out the other day and found that the swalow tail anda small crak on boths side. On 1 side it was worse than the other and the paint and a bit of the shell had come off. I dno how long it has been like this or what caused it. Is this series damage do ye think? Will it leak into the board like? Just wondering what i should do, can i buy a tube of stuff and just cover itup with that or anyhting? Cheers

There was mention of repairing epoxy boards in another thread and northswell said: They're p*** easy to repair, all you do is get the repair putty, fill hole, stick in the water for a minute, dry, sand and back into the surf.

or you could do what I've done with exactly the same board... duct tape

well, ok I filled in the hole with matchsticks first for some reason and then put superglue in the hole too! hahahaha and then I used duct tape.
