i have a kite board of fiber glass construction.
The foot strap stainless steel screw pulled out of the board. I cut away a square of the rubber foot pad to see how it was constructed. It seems like a piece of inset narrow rectangular plastic to secure the screw.

Any suggestions how to fix it or who does fix this proble in metro WA.

thanks jeremy

visit colin earle surf supplies in osbourne park and get a new plug for a couple of bucks and some aqua kneed it from a hardware and fix it yourself for about $15. drill out the old plug and drop in the new plug with some of that aqua kneed it, leaving the screw in the new plug so it doesnt fill the hole. push it in position and can sand and paint an hour later.

You'd probably want to put some glass over the top of the new plug rather than jsut bog around it. Otherwise you'll probably just rip them out again. Glass over the top will help spread the load and loch the plug in.
