How it works

  1. Send photos

    An overall view, a close-up of the damage, plus brand and model – by email or WhatsApp.

  2. Honest assessment

    We tell you whether the repair is worth it and roughly what it costs. Then you decide.

  3. Drop-off & repair

    We arrange drop-off and pick-up in Edt bei Lambach with you individually.

  4. Back on the water

    Leak-checked while inflated, picked up – and you keep paddling.

Price

Usually between €50 and €100

Depending on damage, material and effort. You get the exact price in advance, after we’ve seen the photos – no surprises.

A repair is mainly worth it for higher-quality boards and boats (roughly €500+ when new). For budget boards we’ll tell you honestly if buying new makes more sense.

Why we do this

Because a hole is no reason for the bin.

At TraunXperience we paddle in the middle of a Natura 2000 protected area. Thinking sustainably also means keeping gear on the water as long as possible instead of replacing it.

To do repairs properly, I trained at Duotone (formerly Fanatic SUP Boards) in Molln – right in the warranty department, where the pros make boards airtight again every day.
