I haven't been on the Connelly Ride, though I think others here have. I think I recall seeing them have success on it. Besides length and width, I couldn't find any info on the weight, volume to compare. The shape seems similar. The construction is different. Most all are foam core, but the shell on the Connelly is a thermo fused shell vs the epoxy coated type construction of the Coaster. The epoxy can be repaired with an epoxy filler, I'm not sure the exact way to go about repairing the shell in the Connelly. YouTube might have some tutorial. You don't want to get water inside the foam core if you can avoid it, though I'm not sure it would cause much harm. Judging by a similar construction O'Brien board, I would expect the Connelly to be heavier. It seems like it would be pretty capable.Just picked up this Connelly Ride 5’2” on a deal from academy this past weekend. It has one pretty good nick on the side that led to an additional 20%... Wanted to get some opinions on how this compares to the Coaster? Also what repair method is recommended and would it hurt to use prior to the repair...? Or would I be better off seeking a warranty claim with Connelly than trying to repair...
