German term

was bei dir bei kleineren Beschädigungen zusätzlich zu Gute kommt

German to English Marketing Sports / Fitness / Recreation
Hi everyone, I need help with this part of a sentence:
was bei dir bei kleineren Beschädigungen zusätzlich zu Gute kommt.

The whole sentence is:
Der Kern der VIVOK Wakesurf- und Skimboards ist bei den meisten Modellen wasserabweisend, was bei dir bei kleineren Beschädigungen zusätzlich zu Gute kommt.

The document is a marketing piece about VIVOK wakesurf and skim boards. This particular section is talking about the core technology.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

agree Bernhard Sulzer : that first bei needs to go. It should be: was dir bei kleineren Beschädigungen zusätzlich zu Gute kommt (or I'll eat my hat) Cheers!
