So im head to the car at tremblant about the 5th time on my public enimies, and i look down, horrified to see a piece about 4x1 inch of my topsheet laminate cracked backwards, its onlt in the topsheet, is this big enough to to worry about and take back to the shop, or should i just try to stick it back down and keep goin... anyone else had this problem, or have solution ideas? thanks...

nah duct tape looks cooler



See, there's three kinds of people: dicks, pussies, and assholes. Pussies think everyone can get along, and dicks just want to fuck all the time without thinking it through. But then you got your assholes, Chuck. And all the assholes want us to shit all over everything! So, pussies may get mad at dicks once in a while because pussies get fucked by dicks. But dicks also fuck assholes, Chuck. And if they didn't fuck the assholes, you know what you'd get? You'd get your dick and your pussy all covered in shit!

a little piece of tape would help protect it(as long as it is not bad)

First off, make sure you document the problem and alert K2 customer service of it before you repair your skis. Then fix them ski them and send them in on warrenty after the season is over.

Warm your ski up with a hair dryer first then put the epoxy on and C-clamp it tight. The heat will help the epoxy soak in and hold tight.

Get a board to put under the C clamp on the base side. Reason being, if you put too much pressure on just a tiny area, you could come out with a nice indentation in your base the size of a quater, AND especially if youre using heat, becuase you might push out an edge too...
