OR have done it again - 165cm is 5'5'' not 5'4''.
And if it is the same size as the 2016 Mako Duke it is actually 168cm = 5'6''.

With Rampart Construction, what does one do if they do manage to ding the board? Just use epoxy ding repair?

I dinged my Jester on the rail and took it to a surfboard repairer, colour matched, I can't even see the repair and has lasted over 8 months now, so yes.
Is anyone else riding the Roams?

How hard was it to ding? Does the core absorb water?

The foam is non-absorbent but you should leave for at least a few days to dry before repair...

They are pretty robust, had mine for around 15 months? now and it still looks new (besides the one repair which you can't see). No pressure dings.
I do keep it in a board bag.
It got dumped on the rocks, don't wear a leggy most the time, so I expected damage.
Left it for a few days then got it repaired.

Just got the OR Flite 10 -12 - 14.5 and totally impressed with all the charastics that I have not experienced with the seven other brands I have had in the last 13 years. topped them off with the Mako Duke and Mako 150. Suits all conditions from hatteras to the Gorge. Thanks OR for the great quality and warranty.
