Why soft tops are different
A soft top is built differently from a fibreglass board, so the repair is different too. Two things change the job.
Repaired in the Currumbin Waters factory
Under the skin is a foam core. Once the skin is broken, water can get into the foam, so the damage needs drying and sealing before it is finished. Keep a damaged soft top out of the water until it is fixed.
Colour matched where it can be
The deck is a soft foam skin and the bottom is often a slick plastic sheet. Neither takes resin the way a glassed board does, so the repair has to suit the materials. Joe will tell you from your photos how close a cosmetic match can get.
Joe is an absolute lord!!
I’ve had many many boards repaired by Joe and he’s a wizard. An absolute master of his craft, fin boxes, creases, big dings… joe is your guy! Your boards will come back stronger and better than they were before. Trust me.
Colour matching has always been on point too!!
He’s a great shaper/repairer and an even better person!!
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!
Joes repairs are amazing! Have had 3 boards fixed by him, including a fin box and thunderbolt board and they were all 10/10. Perfectly colour matched and so professional. Good prices and just a lovely guy. Would recommend to anyone and will defs be back!
