(Hobie people read these, right?)

There is a small foam piece on the back of the pedals that the boards "rest" on, actually they come to a stop on this foam.

It has come off (it was glued).

1. I am surprised for the amount paid for the duro, that a piece has fallen off.
2. Obviously, I need to glue it back on
3. what glue should be used?

The dealer I bought this from is 2 hours away, a trip to them is not possible

Contact cement. Brush on the pad and pedal... let dry to tacky and then press on.

Thanks. I called the dealer and they said to use a 3M adhesive for plastics (forgot the exact name). I bought similar and have had to reapply now three times. Each time I have to scrape off the older adhesive and add new.
So, I have to make sure the pad does not fall out when in use and it comes off (yesterday), Clean it up, reapply and let sit to cure.

Contact cement is the best solution.
