I ride the '03 Hyperlite TFD Cool

, let some friends use it (mistake) and got it back like someone had taken sandpaper to the entire heelside edge Evil or Very Mad

and their was a deep gouge Evil or Very Mad

(into the core) on the same edge. The piece is still hanging, and just would like to know the best way to fix it. Is this a garage job or take it to my local wake shop Question

I don't want to ride it for fear of getting water inside the board...thankfully I have my wakeskate to keep me busy!

A little 2-part epoxy, and you're back in business the next day.

i have lots of "gouges" in my board, my dad uses epoxy and it works great, you just have to use a very little bit..and my board is just like new!

epoxy is good, but a fiberglass resen will also work, just make shure you dont mix it up wrong, or you will be sitting for days watching your board dry in the house, if mixed right you should be able to ride in about 3 hours
