I would go down the street and talk to the guys at Summit Ski and Snowboard. Really honest and knowledgeable guys... I don't trust my skis to anyone else.

A true core shot has to be cut out and replaced with a new piece that is epoxied in. If the shop just filled it in with melted in P-tex it's gonna pop right out.

Mike is excellent. Brought something in to him earlier this season that I didn't want my regular guy working on in case it didn't work out! He explained my options, recommended the cheaper and less "invasive" option and all worked out very well. nice guy and obviously very knowledgeable and experienced.

it was a very small core shot, i just didn't want it to delam. we'll see how it works out, i guess. did i mention he did it for free?

Not true. It can undercut then "welded" in.
