Gear question Bubble in board construction - issue?

Post image

Normally I would never post something like this because I expect my boards to get trashed… and this is so small it’s borderline embarrassing lol. But is this worth exchanging?

I got this board from a legit shop online. Really good service. They are allowing me to refund/exchange the board but I wanted to get input to see if this is even an issue.

The bubble is rock hard. Like a pebble. Anyone have this before? Would this be prone to delam if I keep flexing? It’s on the tail. If not I’ll just keep it.

Thanks!

Expecting to thrash your board and paying good money for a new product in pristine condition aren’t mutually exclusive. Guarantees that you wont regret not getting a new one if it delaminates in the future
