Is this going to affect my ski at all?

This chip has been growing a lot the past 5 days of skiing. The edge is slightly bent and is exposed in one of the holes in the sidewall.

Yeah man throw some epoxy over it if it's not delaminating. You don't want water to soak into the core of your ski

Smear some epoxy on it, and start skiing with your feet further apart.
