Is the top part of a snowboard repairable? A ski went across my board and left two scratches on the polished part. Doesn't seem too deep. Is it repairable?

Not repairable, but can be masked.
Surprisingly enough, the top portion or the topsheet of a snowboard is similar to the finish on a car.
So if you think about it, any polishing compound and wax will do wonders for the refinishing of the minor scratches.
Be carful not to do TOO much. it can change the top sheet area you do.

Thanks for input guys, I appreciate it. Perhaps I'll try some polish, but probably just leave it.

i wouldnt bother as it is not performance hindering, but if you really wanted you could just put some epoxy then some tape then clamp down flat scrapers or pieces of wood to make it dry flat then grind it off...if you really want to fill it in that will do the job

Don't bother trying to keep the top sheet all new looking. The more you ride your board, the more scratches will occur. Not much you can do about it. Just keep the bottom nice and waxed....it's the important part.

Agreed. Shouldn't affect your ride but gl with the repair.
If you are a poser then put a sticker over it. Hahah.
errrr stickers make posers now?
