Hey,
Question for ya peeps. I just received a custom from a big name company. Ordered it 6/4x4 PU glassed with epoxy. Surfed it yesterday and caught about 10 or so waves. As I was walking back I noticed through the wax some pretty deep pressure dents on the deck. Stripped the wax and was a bit surprised and how many deep dents where on the board after just 1 surf. I've owned too many boards over the years (thanks to this forum) and I know deck pressure dents are normal, but this was a bit much after 1 surf. Anyone have this experience with bigger name brands? Maybe they used a lighter blank? Board does feel fairly light.
