Moto Mouth Thu Jun 19, 08 9:32 am    Trusty SX finally bit the dust :( So my 2006 SS SX 137 bit the dust yesterday out at Stevenson yesterday The core cracked in half - it was caused by a previous repair that must have weakened the core. You can see the repair in some of the pictures (the big brown spot). The only thing holding it together is the outer lining. I am going to hang it up on my wall as a trophy Time for a new board I was going back and forth as to whether or not I should upgrade - well that answer is clear now!!    SX 1.JPG     SX 2.JPG     SX 3.JPG     SX 4.JPG  _________________ Still rockin gojos, *ssless chaps, and ankle weights! tinyE Since 21 Jan 2006 2004 Posts not really an XTreme Poster Thu Jun 19, 08 9:35 am     are you sure the core failed? (it's hard to see in the pic). it looks like skin failure and delamination. If so, it can be fixed, but you will probably be happier with a new board.

Guess it's time for a new board http://www.nwkite.com/forums/t-8718.html Moto Since 03 Sep 2006 2698 Posts Still a gojo pimp!

I couldn't really show the break in the core - but I can bend the board pretty easy - at first I was like "Whoa - this board is so cool!! It is way flexy - eats up chop!! - and then the core really gave way and I ate it pretty hard" _________________ Still rockin gojos, *ssless chaps, and ankle weights! kyle.vh Since 11 Jul 2007 713 Posts city of angels Addicted Thu Jun 19, 08 9:59 am     that's still good, just use a little duct tape pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Thu Jun 19, 08 10:08 am     "My dad is a television repair man, he has this ultimate set of tools, I can fix it." blancoh2o Since 15 Mar 2005 1154 Posts Oregon Phishy Thu Jun 19, 08 11:33 am     I've got a lunacy in the classifieds that will be a great replacment for you. _________________ KB4C!!!!!!!!!!!! https://kb4c.rallyup.com/kb4c/286ef9/Member Moto Since 03 Sep 2006 2698 Posts Still a gojo pimp!

I saw the lunacy - but I think duct tape and some super glue will do the trick Just kidding - I'll think about it - but I'm feelin the Recoil may be my next board - well see. _________________ Still rockin gojos, *ssless chaps, and ankle weights!

They are pretty sweet all around boards - but I want to demo the recoils first before deciding. _________________ Still rockin gojos, *ssless chaps, and ankle weights!        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
