Brought it October 2020, used it 61 times (kite diary) on average hr and half roughly 90hrs, only thing that makes sense is take off on the beach, I tend to olly the board to load up before jumping

Yeah 3 yr warranty on crazyfly.
Juraj should have no problem doing the warranty.
Unless taking off doing ollie beach starts void the warranty?

Such a strange-looking crack. When you ollie from the beach, do you mostly put down this side of the board? I could imagine that this puts a lot of stress into the board beneath the right heel, do the cracks emanate from there?
I could imagine that a kiteboard is not designed to do that, and that it will crack like this if you bend it too far. After all, kiteboards need some stiffness for a good pop.
I have been using my 5 year old crazyfly raptor for I guess more than 100 sessions and aside from the usual marks it's still quite good.

Your honesty in possibly accepting some fault is refreshing!
