I would really like to know too... could be sea water and heat (the tail not open was still very wet, or some solvent applied to clean a crack on the outside that seeped inside (like acetone), some incompatible resin that could also eat the EPS... or something else :)
@@matshape 99% that is where someone tried to repair with PU resin rather than epoxy. PU melts expanded polystyrene a treat X) I once bought a board that someone had done this too and had covered it up well enough until I got it home and found a chasm in the middle of the deck.....good thing I love repairing em....as you do clearly too. Enjoyed watching thanks :)
Thanks, for that last shot, I hung the board by the leash plug in front of a black fabric. With lights placed carefully you can avoid shadows in the background. And slight color correction to clean it up after.
