Obsessive Surfboard Disorder (OSD) “Oh, Snap!”
Don’t you hate it when you buy your brand new stick, you pick it up, turn around - BAM! - you just bang the tai against the rack of boards - before you even get out of the store! Even if you can’t see any visual damage, you obsess over the trauma, and have nightmares about the “ding” letting in water. What if there’s a spider-line crack that i can’t see? Then if there is any damage, should I even fix it? and would I screw it up? Or should I just spend money for a pro to fix it (nah…). People who don’t surf don’t understand the fragility of surfboards. Just recently, while I was trying to land an old-school kickflip, the skateboard flew out from underneath and flew into my surfboards. Hopefully, there are no dings. I’ll find out when I take the wax off. (it was my new Green Room, it’s epoxy, but…). I wasn’t that bummed, because that kickflip was for the Loaded Challenge Series, and now since I’ve completed the kickflip soon after, and i’ve filmed the other challenges, i can get $100 off any loaded complete - which should be more than the price of a ding repair.
