HOW A PROFESSIONAL REALLY FIXES YOUR SURFBOARD

A lot of videos on youtube that claim to show professional fixes. Many of them make me vomit in my mouth a little...

--------------------------------------------

You'll get first look at new videos before they go public and we can go over your own repairs through that page as well.

There are always members only videos being posted up on youtube too which only you members will have access to.

Please start wearing a mask. My uncle died of asbestosis at 50 and was awful. I know you are not dealing with asbestos but you are dealing with fine particles and fumes.

Every now and then I go back to watching this video again. It is almost therapeutic!

Now I understand why my surfboard cost $100 to repair a ding ( near the fin/box ). Great video and editing too, not easy to do both when trying to do a tidy job. Rock on mate.

You really just taught me everything i was doing wrong, and showed me all the fine details in less than 10 minutes

[Rick_Cavallaro]

Nicely done! And I think I've finally learned why my repairs aren't looking professional. I have a habit of talking shit to my resin while mixing. Can't wait to see how it comes out when I do it your way!

[MultiBmorgan]

im gonna watch this when im beat down, tired and abused by life... awesome

If you spray a thin coat of clear before the black for the pinstripe you can avoid bleed through, since any bleed through will be clear.

Nice vídeo....one thing i tell all my clients . I keep not getting why people still fix boards by adding extra past and fillers😢
I use pu foam from broken boards and glue it with my special secret bond glue and reshape everything back to exact shape and re laminate again
No extra Wright ❤😊
Well doonnnneeee

[EBTROUBLE]

All the resin is going to turn to dust…. And I’m going to breath it in, like a gentleman

You are the ding king bro! I am repairing a board at the minute and I am learning a lot. My rail and deck/bottom repairs have come out good but I tried to remake a tail and it’s not perfect but that’s all part of learning I guess. This video was great.

[Vanquisher-uvut]

Nice Job! I have one question though:
Please tell me where I‘m wrong!
If you sand the epoxy-microballon-mixture flush with the board, then apply fiberglass you should have a small bump where the new patch is right?
If you again sand it flush afterwards, don’t you take away all the new fiberglass as it was „on“ the boards shape?
Intuitively I would sand the epoxy filler down so that it is a bit „lower“ than the board. This way I won’t sand all the fiberglass of just to get it flush with the rest again.

I like to cut foam to fit into the ding from an old board, glue it in with q-cell, and a little colored q-cell filler on the top. Very easy, works well

[StevenCampbell]

All well and good. Some lessons learned. It would have been fine and dandy to have a look at the products used.

Class video man i know now why Rogue Wave Surfboard Repair called you out for using hes footage but the sense of humor is just class. I do watch him and i do like he videos and he knows more than me as I have only shaped 3 boards so far and I live in Ireland so no real local shaper at it every day to show me how to do stuff. Buy you sir are on the next level and I am so happy to have found your channel.
Keep the videos coming and thank you so much for making them.

I love the commentary.
Couldn't stop laughing 😂😂😂

[stevepope]

Ive allways loved the smell of paint and rosen too.
My first board /i filled a large area with rosen.
No color?
Just brownish.
I was a flunky at American Corvette Powder Springs Ga.
That was? 1978?
Still got that board.

Best ding repair channel I've come across, nice one for putting these videos together! Much appreciated. Wish I had seen this sooner as I"m halfway through my 1st repair which I've filled with resin/q cell. Seems to be standard DIY advise, but will use the 2 part foam in the future. I've got a daft question though.... If the filler is sanded flush with the original glass and then cloth is laminated over it + a final hot coat. doesn't this create a buildup of material that then sits higher than the original glass?

[Rodrigorodriguez]

Very happy I came across this Hunk of Splunk of a gem of a video.

Awesome information. Thank you for helping me fix my kayaks all the way in Washington state. Cheers
