    i just fixed by surf board by myself...i am all like did i do it right ...maybe i ruined it and everyone will laugh at my sad patch. One of the life guardswho by the way is a very good looking fellow, :) makes boards for a living and is teaching me how to fix my board since i keep trashing it. He was not here this time to coach me. :eek: I have four patchs on it now counting the one i did. :&

    yeah my new used board. a yellow Kane fish board. 6'4

    well yesterday i was out and i fell off the front and hit the nose and left a nice crack.
    do you fix your own boards? It makes me so nervous fixing mine.

    by the way what board do you use?

    never! ? :eek:

    how often do you surf? I go almost every day. Tamarindo is a surf heaven. There are waves ALL the time. sometimes they are little and sucky but they are there.

    how long is your board? people keep asking " and your standing up on that ok?" 6'4 works great for me but it is 2 inches thick and not so narrow.

    whats it make of?

    I don't fix my own unless it's first aid. Where I go in North Carolina, there's so many people I know that will do it even better than I can for cheap or the ones I'm close to won't charge me at all.
