went to trigg 3rds this morning, wasnt very shapely, but had a go anyway. unwisely chose a few poor waves and got a bit shaken underwater. after a few waves like this i decided to make sure the underside of my board was ok. to my shock there was a circular compression just to the left of the dhd logo. on the boarder of the compression is cracks in the glass - pretty much on the stringer. i felt it and couldnt actually feel the cracks, but they still could be letting water in. also found a compression on the top right of the underside - maybe 20cm from the tip of the nose. never had these compressions on the underside of the board before (not as bad though). i really love the board and want to use it until it cant be used anymore. i need some opinions please... do you think i should go and get it fixed so that the underside is smooth again or should i just put some instant fibreglass lightly on the cracks or what?

its so sad to watch your board deteriorate...

If you cant feel then generally they will be water tight, but sometimes they are not. I use silver duct tape for emergency repairs and for small stuff solares.
With some cracks I have dug them out a bit so the resin gets right into the crack.
Did the board hit you at all?

thats definately hit something luckily its going down the board not across , there looks like no structural damage but sand it back and glass it before the water delams your dhd tissue below the glass.

wont make any difference to performance at all . if you need it fixed bring it in $50
