I've seen this guy's postings on facebook for some time and I really love the designs. But when I look at brands like Futures or FCS I get the impression there's a lot of high tech involved in producing the precise shapes. I wonder how these handmade fins relate to the big brands in performance. Anyone?

I ordered one from him; I'll let you know how it works out if it ever arrives (he's sending to this cousin here in Bali from his shop in Java). They sure look good; I gave him the attached specs before he made mine so hopefully the feel will be similar to the 4-a I have.

Here's the fin he made for me:

Nice! He must have plenty of experience sending his product to Bali, so I wouldn't worry too much about it arriving. I've received some post here that was so incorrectly adressed that I wondered how the postman found me.
I hope it works as good as it looks!

Even if it doesn't, I'll only be out IRD 450....contact him directly and his prices are nearly half of what he lists on the Facebook site, especially if you mix in a little bahasa. :)
