    If you are looking to repair a broken surfboard watch the tutorial that I followed for this repair by DingDrx ua-cam.com/video/J62quvafwuYA/v-deo.html​

    Excellent video. The music choice was spot on!!

    You did good! Mostly good lol. I would definitely recommend that you use epoxy even on a regular board. At least up until it’s time to laminate. It’s much lighter, stronger and more flexible. Plus it’s WAY easier to sand… A bit heavy on the cloth. It’s so far up on the nose that stringer reinforcements can be pretty light. Overall it’s pretty decent. Most of my criticisms would mainly be in regard to alleviating the work load. You did a few things that made the job unnecessarily harder but it came out ready to rock! Thanks for the recognition 🤙🏼

      hah, that was a blast from the past, without you Lazarus may not have been ressurected...Yea there was stuff I didnt need to do but I thought i,d rather do stuff I didnt need to than not do stuff I needed to...Lazarus has been through many bodged repairs since and has just sustained another bigish injury but I,m sure he,ll be back again ..)
