Make it into something new, or use the shape as a template and go to Greenlight to make a whole new longboard.
I broke my board 50/50 - so I'm saving my bucks for the Greenlight plan...

Did you happen to break it last Sunday and where do you surf?
I broke it on Wednesday Sept 5th down around Bradley Beach. That was maybe the second day of the swell.
Yeah, $200 was a little more than a I wanted to pay to fix it up. The board was in pretty bad shape when I bought it. One of the rails needed a lot work and there was a bunch of dings. I probably threw good money after bad. I let the idea of "saving an old board" blind me to the fact that I was spending too much to fix it.
When I was talking to the wife last night she reminded me that I have "better" ways to spend my free time(working on the house, mowing the lawn, or spending time with the baby) than playing a broken board. So we'll see where this project goes.
Sounds like you also need a new wife.
I'll be happy to take that broken board :)
Try making another board out of the longer half.
With the shorter end, maybe cut out a "shark bite" in it and hang it up somewhere haha
make it to a fish. and buy a new board that things done
new board. not worth it. reshape the old half for next summer-beater board.
Make a template and reshape it. It will last longer then a repair and ride way better.
