1 year in of owning a Smik hipster twin pin with the fabric inlay rails. No rail tape and I've had plenty of fun sessions. I am totally amazed with how the rails are holding up. There is no damage at all. Could this be the best construction ever?!
The first photo is from the right side front, where normally my boards take the most impact. Photos from today after a few morning waves 
In think it is, although the fabric inlay would hide a small damage, mine are also whitout damage but I used rail saver pro, just to be sure
