So yeah I got a pair of this years T Halls and I noticed the top sheet coming up from the tail, but its not the whole topsheet, but just a 1/2 inch tab (view pics), my question is: is this bad and needing warrenty or is it not much and should i just epoxy it? And under the fiberglass is exposed now too.

Delam?

Delam?

i really think its not that much i had thalls and when they delamed it was the full tail so i would suggest to try to fix it with super glue or something...maybe if it doesn't work try to get some warranty

Thats the kind of damage you get when the tail hits something.  Impact damage, not total delaming.

that doesnty look like delaming. that looks like impact damage. some little kid most likley railed you from behind, causing the skis' top sheet to crack the way it did. that is in no way shape or form a delam.

Thats not even a delam, that is a chip in the tail. Delams look more like this...
