I just took my brand new skis (08 line invaders) out on my summer setup and i already have gouges on the top of the ski that go to the fiberglass inside. Is there something i can put on the gouges to fix them? I haven't skied them hard or anything and I'm pretty careful with my stuff so i don't know what to do.

If you dont have epoxy then just drop a few drips of super glue into each gouge, thats what i did all last year with my anthems because they chip pretty bad, just filled the gouge with superglue and let it sit overnight.
