There has been a lot of woodboards getting major damage riding on rails. And it seems like no one knows how to fix them, including me . I used epoxy, which you can get at any hardware store. I have repaired lots of surfboards, foam skims and also aircraft. But this was a new one to me, because this type of ding was rare until guys started riding rails. So I went to work, first I took a used old wood skim and simulated an end pipe rail damage. Which is the most common type of rail damage (large sharp rocks can also cause this). This repair should work for most brands of woodskims. I'm not 100% sure, it would be your call on using this type of repair. It came out better than I though, of course it doesn't look like new. But at least it's now skimable, hope this helps you guys get your damaged boards back into the water.
