A minute from the Alta exit off the I-15!
I've got quite a few knicks/dings on the topsheets of my skis. Everything I read online is clamping and marine exoxy and cleaning etc for delaminations. Mine aren't delaminating- just about a dozen or so knicks on the topsheet. I'm thinking just dabs of JB Weld would do the trick?

I was today years old when I discovered this was something people do. I had never heard of top sheet repairs.

To an extent I agree but letting moisture seep into the core can compromise it.
