Repairing my karmas

[johnwayne]

the top of my karma's split off from the bottom at the tip of the ski so the tip can like flop around. anybody have that problem before and whats the best way to fix it?

 

[Silence]

Epoxy + Rivets may be your best option there

[johnwayne]

You gotta pay to play man. Most other expoxies arent meant for water/snow or for cold temps. You need to use a 2 p[art epoxy,

The same thing happened to my old Big Troubles the first day I hit kickers on them. Dynastar wouldn't warranty - boo. Lots of epoxy, some big T-nuts, 5 G-clamps and an old rental snowboard cut in half got the job done and they held up fine ever since. Ithrew some nuts on the other ski as a precautionary measure and just so they matched.

ya i epoxied em just now. u think i need to bolt them or will the epoxy probably be good enough? they looked about the same as the skis in the picture maybe a little worse.

Wow. Well done.

duct tape ftw !

what was the snowboard used for?

Sandwiching the tip while it was clamped with the epoxy so the pressure was nice and even.

2x4?

my karmas are fine. they've started to delam a little but that's mostly from the edges of my skis hitting each other and they've been through a lot.
