Has anyone experenced an ICON's deck indenting when on their knees?
I've riden my 3 times and have found that the deck has a couple of 2-5mm or so dings next to the handle where my knees would rest? I spent a total of 10 paddle stokes on them and this is what's happened. Not happy...
I bought this board thinking it was strong through the standing zone...I hope i'm wrong and it's just a fault with the board and Coreban will replace it.

Billboard, I was under the impression that this was a board talk forum and i;m asking advise not bagging a very impressive piece of kit.

I'm waiting to hear from Coreban. Just throwing it out there....

i have some heel dents in my coreban performer (where my feet are)

they are visible through the deckpad, but not very deep.

I have a Icon in the core range (colour), have had it about a Year, may have small indentations on it, as to be expected. I am looking to use a Icon Pure as one of my new boards, but not as a demo, I believe the Pure range is for people looking for a slightly more performance board over the Core range, as it is lighter. As all things there is a trade off. The Core range will cop a hiding as the Pure may but the pure will show it.

Spoke to Corebane and received a fantastic response.

I've been told that their customer service was A1 and to exprence it was really impressive.
They have helped out with the board and I would still be recommending them over many other brands.
There was a reason I choose a Coreban, not just for the build quality.

Lets hope things move up from here...

So what did they do for you? (so I know what to expect, in case I have issues...)
