like i said,

ski shop if youve never worked with epoxy.

if you know what your doing, find some good shit, west systems, available from most marine stores.

get a straight edge or something, and clamp it along the edge, so it forms a cavity. then you pour the epoxy in, and let it cure. then you gotta sand it down, sharpen it, and trim the flack. and everything you use has to be covered with a high density plastic to prevent it from locking together. like i said, since you prolly dont have good edge tunning equipment, a base grinder, or any of the expierience, just got to a ski shop, and pay the 20-30 bucks. youll get a full tune too.

get the guys at the shop to do it properly
i did it and you pretty much just have the epoxy extend where the edge is missing and it works really well
