K2 extreme rivet fell out

Last weekend i was skiing and noticed that one of the rivets on the tail of my K2 extreme's was missing. I searched in the search bar and found that most people just ski the rest of the season and then send them in for warranty. I was wondering if the rivets are covered on the extreme's because i didn't see anything in warranty about it and didn't see anyone else with rivet problems on the extreme's. Also should i do something about the hole in the meantime or should i just leave it?

Here's some pictures.

Thanks for the number i forgot to tell u i lived in Canada but it worked out fine and he gave me the Canadian number. They told me to bring them to a dealer and from there they will send the skis for warranty. I don't wanna lose my skis for the end of the season, but if i keep skiing on them will it do some permanent damage? I don't wanna screw up the warranty some how and end up with broken skis.

k2 is really awesome with warranties. On my disorderlys, i even told them that I'm going to wait until the end of the season to send them in because its like a 4 week time to send them. They said they understand and they will still give me the new ones.

Dude, it's a decoration.  Calm down.  Your skis will not ignite without an even number of rivets.

Actually, if you ever had a pair of k2 skis prior to the rivets you might have noticed that they delam within a month or so (I had like 3 pairs that did this).  The fix was bullet rivets.  always skied great, just had bad delam problems that was taken care of the next year.
