    Default Skim Board Ding

    hey all

    I'm pretty new to skimboarding;some friends went down to Florida and brought it back with em. I recently bought a Medium Wave Zone (~$200) and after my 3rd or 4th time using it i noticed this ding on the bottom of the board. its about 1 1/2 cm by 2 cm. Its not real deep or anything.

    i was just wondering if it needs to be fixed for future references, i dont want it getting worse. If it does, can i do it myself/what would i need?



    Any help would be good thanks

    I wanted to bring this thread back up to attention. Just throwing this out there, but has anyone tried using shoe glue to patch up a small ding? I had a friend whom had a minor ding on his nose and he used shoe glue to patch it up and it looks like it works just fine. Anyone?
