Re-waterproofing

[Tobi]

I ripped a hole in my snowboarding pants during the season.

Lucky for me it was along the stiching and a friend has managed to stich them back up for me.

I'll need to re-waterproof them now though before they can be worn at the snow again.

Does anyone know what I should be looking for to do this and where I can find it?

[Podlettte]

there are many brands of wash in re-waterproofer, is that what you mean, or do you mean somene who can tape seam seal it again?

If it's wash in stuff you're after any ski shop will sell it, I've used Nikwax and Holmenkol brands, though there are others like grangers which I've found even better

I currently have a snapped surfboard held together with it and it rides great though with a little flex when duck diving
