I have recently purchased an 09 Rio/ fat face and after using just three times I have about 8 nicks in the EVA surface....suffice to say I cannot explain how one of them appreared...

i'm sailing on a reservoir so theres no major hazards/ obstacles...Iam falling off a lot ( and having fun) BUT can't help but feel a little upset about this issue.

In the UK you cannot get a secondhand Rio (only Vipers) so the residual value should be good BUT i'm dredding what it will look like in 18mths time.....

Any update on repair kits would be fab!
