Wondering how much durability has been compromised and could it still be used?
Curious if this model of track will continue to rip?

Thanks in advance.

Dry it right out and gorilla glue it back together. Let it cure for a few days in the heat.

My buddy tore one of his lugs and tore the flat of the track yesterday. It's not the durability of it its the fact he went ripping through deep snow minimal base hit a tree stump / log after i told him i wouldn't do it lol. We rolled it over and could plainly see were it got poked through then tore. I think if people were honest with themselves there wouldn't be a question of durability.

I’m not sure what your implying. “ I think if people were honest with themselves there wouldn’t be a question of durability” Track has a rip, caught a stump, (it happens) just asking for thoughts on durability after a rip, nothing not honest about that!!!

I’d be getting a replacement ordered, personally.

I hate being broke down in the woods for something that was preventable.

It’ll probably live a while longer, but at some point it will fail.

I don't think glue alone is going to last at all. Add some stitching as Teth-Air mentions and it may get you by for a few rides, but I think you're in for a new track.

What I ment is if people admit maybe I shouldn't be shredding through places in minimal base snow pack like it's a 5ft base then I think track wouldn't be an issue. Yesterday was 4ft plus deep with maybe 2ft base that's why my buddy tore his told me I should've listened to you but when we've been waiting so long for snow and now it 4 plus feet of fresh it's hard to be to not want to shred.
