So i recently got a pretty bad chip on the back tail of my volkl ledge's and its right down to the core. Just wondering what you guys think is the best fix/epoxy to use for the job.

Marine epoxy like for boats and shit. Then it's water tight and won't rot your core.

Marine epoxy is strong but after it cures its very ceramic like and prone to cracking when the ski flexes. A slow setting silicone or urethane epoxy will flex with the ski and be less likely to crack out. I've had very good luck using aqua seal for base patches, delams, and top sheet damage.

I had been using epoxy in the past, but I just did a repair with
"Gorilla Glue" on a pair of Public Enemy Demo's I've been fixing up- Its
much easier to work with, at least for me, than epoxy.
