So i just got like an inch long chip awhile ago. the top sheet over it is still hangin on. do you think i should cut that off and put like some type of filler on there or use and epoxy to glue it back down?
I searchbared and saw how to epoxy but i wanted to see if i should use like a filler?
I know this should have been posted in Gear but i need a quick response.
Thanks +K

I'd cut the chip off and fill it wit epoxy. It will seal the core to keep moisture out.

I would cut off the dingly doo dad and fill it with epoxy. epoxy fixes everything.
You could also just throw some duct tape over it.

Duct tape fixes everything! I used some shitty epoxy from like wal-mart and it held for half a season but now its starting to chip off, so don't go cheap is my only advice haha. or if you do make sure to get a lot.

Top sheet chipping won't threaten the integrity of your ski...it's just cosmetic.
