I don't know if it's the same thing, but my ASD Enduro 8'8" developed a
hairline crack from rail-to-rail on the deck the season before last. I
could actually slightly open it up by pushing down on the nose. ASD
fixed it, I think just by epoxing over the whole thing again. I assume
the structure was not affected. I also flat land on occasion (right Mr.
L?).
