Creased my beloved Hyfi blakbox 3 deck today.

Is it worth repairing or is all the strength gone now??
Bottom looks fine but its rail to rail on the deck.

What happened ? Much force on it or dodgy build?

Decent bit of swell today, caught a nice one and ate it mid reo, but I don't think that damaged it. It was dredging onto a sandbank.
Paddling back out copped a decent one on the head, but really didn't feel the lip landed on me, judged it should of landed a foot in front of me....... maybe it pitched a bit more???? but it ripped me on my board in a millisec really violently never really had that before in 35 years of surfing, and sufing bigger days than this?
jumbed back on paddling out and felt the fibers on the rail chewing into my arm from the crease.......

What size is the board and is it EPS or PU?

All Hyfi are EPS and its 5'10

Had a similar crease on a board when in Bali, the guys patched it up and it was sweet for the small waves on the rest of that trip.

2nd wave back home in a decent swell and it snapped in that spot, may have just become a weak spot after the fix, I was spewing as I missed a good session that day.

The PU?! NOoooooooooooooooooooooooo
