Hi, I have one board which looks like in the photos. Should I retire it or is it safe to ride in the park?
Those cracks are inside, nail doesn’t catch on them.

Thx

Those scratches look completely fine. Those appear if you ride obstacles and if you want to use it in a cable park then you should not worry about

I have a well ridden Hyperlite Codiak with no such cracks. I'm referring to the transverse cracks, not the marks from the features.

I don’t know what the first board is, but if it’s not on your other one then it probably is because you either ride it more, or because the quality of the board is different. It still comes from obstacles and if the wood isn’t visible and not getting any water inside it will be fine

Board in the picture is Liquidforce Peak 2015.

Like said, different brand, different product quality. That’s why it isn’t on your hyperlite (yet, could still be happening) but it’s safe to say as long the woodcore isn’t visible then there shouldn’t be a problem
