Why carbon is different

Not Just
Black Fibreglass

Carbon looks like dark fibreglass, but it carries load differently, and the weave you can see is part of the finish. Two things change the job.

Building in carbon since 2019

The strength runs in the fibre

Carbon is strong along unbroken fibres. A proper repair carries the load across the damage with new carbon, not just filler. Joe builds in carbon himself, so he knows where the strength runs.

The cloth is the look

On a carbon board the weave shows through clear resin, so there is no paint to hide a repair behind. The cloth and the clear finish both need matching, and Joe will tell you from your photos how close a cosmetic match can get. See the carbon cloths.

Came to Joe for a ding repair and a pressure dent, and the result was beyond my expectations. The dings were repaired so well and professionally, and the pressure dent is no longer visible at all. I picked up my board and it looked brand new again.
Joe is an amazing professional, and you can tell he is truly passionate about his work. Would 100% recommend Cross Design to anyone!

Can you repair a carbon surfboard?
Yes. Dings, snaps, delams and rail damage on Carbon Fiber and carbon-wrapped boards. Send photos and Joe will tell you what the repair needs.
Is a carbon repair different from a fibreglass repair?
Yes. Carbon is a structural fibre, so a proper repair has to carry the load across the damage, not just fill it. And because the weave shows through clear resin, the finish is part of the repair too. Joe explains the options for your board when he quotes.
Will a carbon repair be invisible?
Exposed carbon is harder to hide than paint, because the weave is the finish. Joe will tell you from your photos how close a cosmetic match can get before you commit.
Do you repair carbon fins and fin boxes?
Fin box work is regular work at the factory: replacing boxes, converting setups and re-threading grub screw holes (fin box repairs explained). For a carbon fin, send a photo and Joe will tell you whether it is worth repairing.
Can you repair carbon foils, paddles and surf skis?
Foil boards, SUPs, surf skis and paddles are all repaired at the factory (Surfcraft and SLSC repairs). For the foil itself (mast, fuselage or wings) or a carbon paddle shaft, send photos first and Joe will tell you straight whether it is a job for the factory.
What about carbon fiber bike frames, car parts or drones?
They are outside surfcraft and boats, so we make no promises. Send photos and ask: Joe will tell you honestly whether it is something he will take on.
How much does a carbon fibre repair cost?
There is no set price list for carbon. Every job is quoted from photos, free and with no obligation.
Where is the work done?
In our factory at 2/14 Nuban St, Currumbin Waters, on the southern Gold Coast. Drop in during shop hours or send photos first.
Can carbon fibre be repaired?
Yes. Carbon is a structural fibre, so a proper repair carries the load across the damage with new carbon, not just filler, and the clear finish over the weave has to be matched too. Cross Design repairs carbon surfboards, fins, foil boards, SUPs, surf skis and paddles in Currumbin Waters, and Joe will tell you from your photos how close a cosmetic match can get.
