A small nail went a cm into my eagle metal core :(

i was riding at my local, and (as u can tell from the title) a small nail, aboud 2mm wide and 2cm in length (about :S), went about a cm into the urethane. luckily (well,in a way not lucky lol) the fire brigade were just outside the park, so i asked em to get it out wiv sum plyers, and they did it succesfully . ive put it in the front for the moment to decrease the chance of chunking, but do u guys reck on itll break?

I had a small sharp rock force its way into an old Eagle of mine, its still fine. Judging from your pic the split isn't as bad as mine, so it should be okay.

It looks like it's more in the middle, so it should be fine. Even if it was on the edge, you should ride it.
