How to repair bottom slick?

    Anybody got advice on how to glue down one third of my bottom slick - that's a helluva lot of rubber cement!

    Is there a way of doing it without adding millimeters to by board's thickness, not to mention weight?

    The board is a Manta Volatile / Mystic, and the slick, while stiff, is flexible (i.e. not a hard-shell like you get on some borads).

    :?

    I would say give Rossi a ring :!:

    The amount of glue and time that you could spend on this, you will probably pay the same for a new slick, and :arrow: it probably wont be that heavy as it will get dried out.

    Your board will look like new and light as it first was :!:

    If you cant get hold of Rossi, phone the local surf shop that stocks his boards and enquire there :idea:

    ROSSI is a member of the site and can be contacted by sending a Private Message or Email to him by visiting his profile through the memberlist

    Best of luck

    Of course - outsource! Good idea, I will mail Rossi, and hopefully it will be happy days again....
