I my skis up from a tune up this week but now today I have two more fat gashes all the way through the base, one has sone ptex folded over so I notice it when Im riding. Ive already got two $40 repairs this season and its getting $$$.
- What methods work best for filling/smoothing gashes in my bases?

Get a metal scraper (NOT a plastic one) and some ptex candles from a sports store or skateshop. Follow the instructions.
