SEAM LEAKS

Seam leak repairs... let’s be honest

Seam leaks are tricky to fix for good. The spot where you see bubbles usually isn’t where the air is actually leaking. It’s just where the air is escaping. You fix one spot, the air finds another way out, and you keep chasing leaks. That gets expensive fast. This is where we recommend fixing it yourself.

Seam repairs are best effort

Tiny seam just starting to leak or a full blowout, same deal. We’ll still do it if you love that board or it was an expensive one. Just know it’s not guaranteed.

Seam blowout from $100
