Pulled the track system on this board probably shouldn't have been riding it with boots.

I'm a total rookie to board repairs. Can this be repaired. Was going to drill some holes and put in screw inserts but there's probably a better way. Also does anyone do board repairs in Perth?

The only north boards that have a warranty when using boots are the team series, gambler and hadlow ts from memory.

This is not a rookie repair job. If you have to ask then look for someone else to do the job.

Thanks lynxmo0

Everything is possible. You would need to route out where it's cracked to see the real damage. Meaning, if it wasn't dried immediately than the moisture did the job and epoxy will never stick to the core.

Even if you put the inserts (which I sell), the above must be addressed first.

When routing, wear a proper breathing mask and gloves.
