Wondering if anyone has had similar problems of timber delamination (lifting) problems. I've had 4 PSH boards and loved them all, but the 9 11 definitely has some issues...I had a delam problem after about 6 mionths which was fixed and even tho the repair guy thought there might be more prob's I was hoping thsat was it, but



....sure enough a recent 2nd repair and now a larger delamination is appearing...so...any tips of what I should do? Thanks!

Looks like a warranty Lowers. If you can take it back to your dealer he can get the ball rolling.

That bottom image seems to show water damage in the veneer...not delam (or am I looking at it wrong?)

Hi Lowers, is there any chance there may be a small crack somewhere else on the board that is allowing water to seep into the foam and then lead to the delam. problems? Maybe check carefully around the handle or fin boxes. I noticed yesterday that my 8'6 has cracked all the way around the handle insert and has been letting water in (not sure how long for) - i hadn't surfed it for 7-8 months except one surf a couple of weeks ago and it was only the angle it was sitting in the garage that made me notice a little salt residue around the handle insert, the location of the crack being right on the edge of and extending under the deckgrip made it hard to otherwise notice - it has most likely been cracked for a while but i couldn't see it under the edge of the grip. My board is way out of any warranty period (over 18 months old) and i've gotten some very good use out of it, but just thought i'd mention it as it might be contributing to your problem.

Outcome - Superb, the backup and follow through from PSH has been beyond what I coud have imagined and problems solved. Understandably, some of these boards do have issues, of the 4 PSH's I've had this was the only one that did and it's problems sat well inside 12 months....The best news for me is they have sorted 100% - My loved 9 11 will be replaced and it's one board that right now I suspect will be a lifetime keeper...I haven't seen too many others in the water or even seen reviews on them...but for the larger /taller surfer, it's a board I love...cheers to all who responed and helped!
