Boardwork

Routed out old handle and glassed in a new blue planet handle - back to a factory look.


Quick nose job - Riviera sup


Had to fix this the right way after another shop did a botched repair.


Focus sup


Another botched repair job / poly resin on EPS


Cosmetic rail refinish - getting it ready for RSPro


Double buckle, Ouch!


Another botched fin job - this time the glass shop added
A 0 degree cant fin, it should have been a 9degree cant, way off! Made it a quad while I was at it.



Kamanu OC1 damage from shipping, not to bad. They needed back to factory finish before delivery.


SIC Bully - 11" rail crack - finish pic has RSPro

I also restored the rails all the way around , this is the end result.


Here's how i like my finishes, sand Carbon is cool too much easier and less time consuming plus you can get away with a lot more imperfections

Seriously man. U have an amazing eye for matching. Great work

Your work is truly amazing, and it is a treat to look at the before and after pictures. You know that you have a bunch of board heads on this forum when our idea of looking at turn-on pictures is looking at board repairs. Keep em coming.

I think you need a trip east. I'll get a bunch of folks that need repairs together along with my own boards. You can stay at my place...working vacation....

[eDUBz]

Stoneaxe, seriously not a bad idea. Some people from Hawaii who follow me mentioned the same thing.

We could make it work for sure.....

Ricky, looking great as always. I got a couple 'fresh' ones for you in Minnesota too!

14' Carbon Riviera Downwind - fixed for Mr. Geser.


Carbon Starboard repaired for one of the reps - this pattern got me, I tried multiple techniques and could not get it to flow. It just became too much time involved where I had to tap out. Thailand got me!



Basic rail crack on a blue planet.


Huki OC1


Fin box replacement

Everytime I see the "before and after" photos of your repair work, it just amazes me.

Thanks Night Wing - i officially do more repair work than paddle, but that's ok, I still feel connected and everyone of my customers is great to work for. Every board is a new Canvas for me.


I just finished this one - 14' Carbon Sonic DC

Spectacular! Just spectacular! So edubz, are you just totally covered up with work all the time? I would think you would be. Really great stuff!

[PonoBill]

Your idea of "tapping out" would be my idea of the best work I've ever done.

Glad you clarified that, I thought "tapping out" meant perfection...

I was thinking the same....by far

Pretty much - these repairs do take time and sometimes I spend too much time on one repair, but it's my name on it and no one else. I'd rather do 1-2 quality repairs over 10 quick repairs.
