- How to fix a surfboard ding
We have all been there… your travelling through a far of an exotic country you just about to go out for a surf and the wave look great but you find out you got a ding from your last session or you damage your board on the way there… what do you do? Some surfer might sit out the session some might use the handy old gaffer tape or a spare sticker to help keep it watertight and psychos among you might just go in any way, you know who you are…
But what if you had the ability to do a pretty good patch up job on the run to help make your board as good as new.
Its always good to know how to fix your surfboard dings and making a half decent repair can keep your stoke levels at an all-time high. Having a quick solution to make your board watertight and still perform at the highest level that you can do instantly is a must-have skill for every surfer. Especially if you on a long surf trip having a quick guide can be all the difference.
Rember this is a quick patch-up job to get you through your trip or a few sessions and not a comprehensive fix but its just the bare essentials you need to have in an emergency ding repair kit to get you through
