Any of you guys have any knowledge of fixing boards? I have a nice prototype Fibreflex that has an impact split near the nose. Not pretty, but not a total loss either... probably worth fixing. It is one of my favorite big hill freeriders. I love the flex characteristics. As a prototype I cannot get another. I have one of the production versions as well, but it's not quite the same.

Post a picture, it might help.
I'm assuming the damage goes into the wood core, and the fiberglass skins.
repairing the wood is a problem, you could remove the damaged area and cut a replacement piece, and epoxy it in place. Then get some epoxy tinted to match the fibreglass, fill the damage, and sand with finer and finer grit till it's smooth. Never done it, but I've worked with wood, f'glass, epoxy and kevlar.
Not easy to do a pro job though. try a fiberglass, auto body, or surf shop.
