How to fix a raceboard

[andrewkiter]

So a friend gave me his raceboard in 2 pieces broken from the nose to the tail but he said it was from a friend of his then he said cause the guy owed another guy some money and for payback... or revenge
well the point is could i fix it me by my own?
any tips could i put like some fiberglass sticks to stick it as one and wich glue should i use?
its a mikes lab 70 a 190 x 70 cm does it worth fixing it and where can i buy some cheap fins fo it????? an some good sraps?
Thanks

Take it to a shop that makes surfboards and see if they can fix it. It might be worth it. Not a do it yourself project, IMO.

You've got to post a picture of this board!

All the information you could possibly want is here:

On the other hand, by your somewhat lacking description I think you are a little in over your head, but that said always fun to give it a shot

Like DaveSails said..pics.

mask everything - spray small amount of expanding foam in break. tightly clamp it together using wooden battens top and base that let it conform to the rocker curve (dont let it stick to foam), dry, sand foam flush and begin the toxic work- omg i can almost taste the epoxy i feel sick...

If you feel up to the investment in time, practice and tools to do like on boardlady's website, go for it. Or find somebody that builds/repairs composite sandwich surfboards etc.

Don’t bodge your boards or you can kill it never ever use polyester on polystyrene foam
