The Kink Is Erm... Kinked

I didn't notice it at the time, but a day or so after the trip to Castleford I found that my snowboard has taken another beating. As I think back to Friday evening I do seem to recall a rather unnatural cracking sound...

I'm not quite sure how I did that, but it doesn't look good. With this, and two cracks in the opposite edge, there's little doubt I'm gonna have to get a new board for next season. I just wonder how long this one is going to last?

To be honest I'm starting to wonder about the durability of this board. I bought the Kink at the start of the season ('05/'06) and since then I've done around 5 weeks of riding. How would it have lasted if I'd done a full season?
