Guys,

About to buy an upgrade board for 13 yr old son (35kg). It would appear that most shop boards in that 5'8 to 6'0 range don't have a gloss coat. I would have thought that this meant less resin, less strength and less water proof? The shops are obviously trying to sell to a price but conversations with old glassers recommend getting a gloss coat for strength and ease of repair.

Any comments before I talk to my favourite shaper
