 Poster: A snowHead

What's the best way to repair a small crack on the top edge of your snowboard? I can't figure out how to put an image in the post or I would.

On the top sheet, a split in the edge layering or a crack on the metal edge itself?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

On the top sheet at the edge of the board, but not on the metal edge.

A small crack doesnt sound right on the top edge ?
Do you mean a cracked sidewall or capped edge if so that could let moisture in ?
Some people diy use epoxy as a repair on top sheets but some epoxys are not flexible and can also then turn pi ss yellow in colour which then looks nasty .
I believe the piste office could advise on expoxy types such as flexible and if it will stay clear in colour and/or if it really needs work at all

Just sound like a top sheet chip. Whop some epoxy under it and clamp it.

@condon22, as @Gored, has suggested. you need some flex and this is the right stuff, if its bad clamp it makes sure you don't glue the clamp to the top sheet, I use the backing from sticky labels

Practice on lollipop sticks or something first. An old bank or credit card can be good for spreading. Your decision about sanding before/after

@condon22, once you've mixed the two parts warm it up with a hairdryer, it makes it more runny and will get to the areas you can't reach
