Possibly. Maybe Ive got some imperial one's hanging about in the garage without me realising. I'll stick a key in the post with the cheque for the hoodie. Its got a groovy 'F' plastic thing and everything! :wink:

Actually I'll check that I have got a spare one first, but Im almost sure I have, and I'll put it in the post tomorrow. No waves at the moment anyway :roll:

What fins have you got in there? Or rather, not in there yet? All my boards have got futures :D

That was such a girly answer! :twisted: :wink:


Okay, I realise that if they're in the board you cant tell what model of fins they are, but still.... :wink:

Kyla: A blue one!
