Some really good advice here with the subtleties, leaving the foam dipped a little, using squeegee power to get max saturation with min resin and stuff like that. Thanks!
Nice step by step demo! Still one of the best I've ever seen at Big Rock, back in the day! Seen you going off on a few guys that probably deserved it, I was just happy that aggression was never focused on me. Good to see you still look healthy and got a successful surf related business.
Back in the day I fixed a couple of long boards by routing in stringers and glassing over. It was heavier, but the board never broke. Also wasn't trying to make the boards fly.
Hi. Yea the lam should kick before you hot coat it. It doesn't need to be all the way kicked though. An easy way to know is to Leave a little bit of the lam resin in your cup and once it gels in there , just wait a few minutes and the board is ready to be hot coated. Have fun !
@@shakeyspapa3964 & do you lay the cloth on before the filler kicks? By kicks you mean set, & you say gel, do u mean not hard & not sticky or spreadable?
Camera person should have shown us what the actual damage looked like and showed us a direct angle/view of the work being done I stopped watching halfway through because that sideways angle may look cool aesthetically but it's not helpful to viewers trying to learn.
yeah a visual of damage & the cloth cuts would b good. Roper described exactly what he was doing. He scuffed one side, explaining it was only a crease, he opened other side(i take as down to the foam) You see the butterfly when he lam coats it.
I "creased"(buckled) my board yesterday! I was going to buy a new surfboard and put it aside and MAYBE fix it later on. But now I might take it to my trusty local ding repairer and I might be able to surf again without paying another $600+. The board I buckled was a $900 surfboard and I had it for only 7-8 months.
@@Follower0912 haha I buckled a 3 month old one with no other damage to it and I know a bunch of other people who have snapped hifis. I'll believe that they changed the construction when I stop seeing them break so often. Cheaply made and marked up beyond belief. It's sad too cause Jason does make good boards, but unless your rich you can't justify spending that much for it to break in like 6 months
does anybody know it the Resin can be the same for the Hotcoat as for the first layer of resin, only that you add the surfacing agent for the second layer resin batch?
Hi . Yea it's the same resin. Polyester resin is lam resin. Polyester resin with surfacing agent added is sanding resin. Have fun ! (If you are working indoors wear a respirator)

Super helpful. Buckled board repair by a surfing legend, Joe Roper. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge....

You are a real Craftsmen, thank you so much for sharing.

Thanks Joe, as a fellow glasses, I appreciate your technique.😊✌🏽
Incredibly helpful
just perfect. thanks a bunch and a great concept to share these kinds of videos! stoked.
That squeegee looks awesome. What brand is it?
Great video, to the point
Nice video, one question, do you let the lam coat cure before doing hot coat ?
Hi. Yea the lam should kick before you hot coat it. It doesn't need to be all the way kicked though. An easy way to know is to Leave a little bit of the lam resin in your cup and once it gels in there , just wait a few minutes and the board is ready to be hot coated. Have fun !
Was looking for this question + answer too, thank you both!
@@shakeyspapa3964 thanks for that

all killer no filler!
I've had nightmares of surfing and my board buckles lmao!
They forgot to mentioned is PU foam. Hence polyester resin, otherwise would be melting it it was an EPS foam.
It seems like, a camera fuse bulb reaction? Hence, it isn't a sponge. Fin boxes, would help, the crease, and, splits.

Basically we’re watching with our eyes closed

How much added weight does a repair like this add?

i had a new one for 3 surfs that then snapped. be happy brah
Was it a JS in hifi?
@@-spyguy-6307 yes but they've improved the construction since then

Nice
Did the stringer crack or break also
Joe, how much to do this repair?
doing ding repair on your own boards is a humbling experience, if you want pro quality repair I suggest taking it to a pro.
How much does that repair cost?
The stringer on my board has been split and damaged. Any suggestions.
nice scissors!
