I am looking for a midsized freeride/freerace board. I came across these two boards, I am a bit hesitant as the damage on both cover a rather big area. Neither are repaired professionally but by the owners.
What do you think?


It depends upon the actual damage under the repair. I would want to give the boards a good going over first, is the repair likely to lift off and ask the owner what the damage was.
I've repaired small damage on my boards and it looks a lot worse now than what it actually was.
It certainly drops the price. The main thing would be if its water tight. There is a test you can do over night but not something you could do when inspecting a board.
Thanks guys, I passed on both boards as the damage was in no way reflected in the price of either of the boards.
