Custom shaped new board buckled in the shore break on the first ride!

This brand new board suffered a freak accident and buckled in the shore break on its first ride.  Fortunately we were able to repair it to the original shape with almost no added weight (the tweak-out Shimano bicycle scale showed the same weight before and after).  We used come-along straps to restore the original rocker during the repair.  Pourable urethane foam replaced the cronched foam, fiberglass repaired, and this broken board in back in the water like nothing ever happened.

Putting the board in traction with come-alongs during the repair to restore rocker line

Finished repair with virtually no added weight
