Got home from the beach and noticed a crack in the rail on my Twintip. (Ozone base 137). I cant figure out how to post photos but it is in the black lining around the edge. You can sort of see a bit deeper at the edge as if the fiber glass is peeling up on the very corner. Just wondering if anyone else has had it happen or what you can do to fix it.

Hi Zigs. I have a bit of experience fixing Twintips. Send me an email with a few pics to tom@exmouthsurfcentre.com.au and I'll be happy to advise.

If you are near to Kitepower take it in there and let Peace have a look, should be an easy fix and he can probably advise on how it has happened.
You can also send some photos to my phone 0433323299

Pretty easy to fix yourself, resin under lifted part and clamp it. Later fill rail edge with resin and a powder like talc or wood dust (avoids having to buy too much eg: q-cells or cabosil etc)
