Hi all ...

Really need some help here ...

last year i bought a Darcy super glide , a nice board for a confident beginner ! .. but have lost a fin and the crappy shop i brought it from doesnt supply 'that kind' of fin system . I've tried the web' for fin suppliers and contacting the maker but still havnt got anywhere ..its killing me

Guys can you let me know of any good fin suppliers or how or where to replace the fins with a different type ??

Need to know what type of fin system it is - FCS, Power Drive, normal old school fin box, etc.?

hey broosta ..

all ive got to go on is what is on the side of em ' .. FJC ???!

[Broosta]

So are they glassed in then?

[CheeZee]

..they are a usual looking straight slot-in and screw fin . They have a notch at the front that locks into a ridge and then a notch at the back for the screw to go into ... so wish i had a photo to post

..just hitting the search engines looking for 'Darcy co. again .. dude was helpful then i didnt hear back from him ..this has been a lil' nightmare since last sept' !

That is the 'old school fin box system' then.

Just been searchin about and think it could well be Future Systems Fin, they have a model called FJC1 (John Carper designed fins) which can be bought from Seabase Ltd.
