if you bought your board through a good pro shop they should take it back no matter how broken delaminated or cracked it is and get you a new one as long as it was from NORMAL wear and tear. If you came down hard off a Double up and your board cracked or broke as long as its been about a year maybe a bit more they will replace it. Now if you slider marks or broke it on a dock, slider, etc. and your not sponsored or a team rider be prepared to fork out the cash for a new one

My 2005 Parks 136 had the inserts rip out completely on the left binding.
Got it replaced pretty quick too.
Was edging hard to the a cable raley and when I was digging in, thats when it happened.

Broke a 2004 CWB Platinum Prodigy after 1 and a half summers of hard riding (2-3 days per week when considering the winter months).
I got it replaced with a 2007 CWB Platinum Marius. Good deal in my oppinion. Got it replaced within 3 weeks.

i took my 04 byerly into a shop asking about some delamination on the can openers and they asked me to leave my board and they called me the next day sayin i had an 8 inch crack through the core running legnth wise, thought that was pretty impressive, delaminated my next one too, really think hard flat landings in the flats take a toll on boards. i quit takin my stuff into the flats cus my body is wearin out and my premier has lastedd 2 years. on a different note i tore 3 sets of era bindings within a month last summer, one pair i completely shredded down the side, nearly blowing my knee, scared me pretty good, luckily it just tweaked my knee bad.

I've broken the inserts out of 2 different O'Brien boards. In both cases, the boards had "sentimental" meaning because they had been signed by a bunch of pro riders while we were shooting vids. In both cases, dealing directly through O'brien, they quick-shipped me a replacement and let me keep the damaged boards when I explained the situation. The first time they replaced it with the same board, the second time it was a discontinued model by then, so they let me pick any board out of the current line up. IMO, that's the way customer service should operate. I felt they took care of me, so despite the breakage, I never had a problem recommending their products to others.

I break a lot of boards. I bet like 4 to 6 a summer. Usually it happens on double ups, normally its rather lack-luster, I come down hard on the tail or something and Snap. They Typically break on the inside of either of my feet. I have attatched a few pictures of some old broken boards.

Came down on the wake on a backroll with a foot on each side. I guess after 5 years of riding it finally had enough. My Parks bindings had just bit the dust so I guess it was time to update my ride. Picture says it all...  CWB has a limited lifetime warranty and will sell you a new one at half MSRP.

since there are no pics posted yet:  broke at the end of its first season from regular wake riding, on a scarecrow landing, had never seen a slider. broke through the core and was still held together by the top sheet. CWB had me email them a pic to show no slider marks on the bottom, and shipped me a replacement within days. I have nothing but great things to say about CWB's customer service. Have had them replace torn overlays no questions asked too.

Leo how do you like the platty marius? Thinking about getting one. Does it ride much different than the foam? I noticed a diff. between my absolue foam and Plat thats why I was asking.
