Just thought I’d throw in one of the weirder fins I’ve tried, helps nose riding but requires a full stand on the tail old time pivot turn or classic drop knee to be fully effective.
Floating upside down terrifies the kooks :lol:

apologies, theres a typo.

it should have read:

"Thanks, its proper thruster (3 equal size) NOT a 2+1 setup"

One of Roy Stewarts' inventions

I have one as well (thruster set, although broke one of them and he isnt making them any more...) The leading edge (based on whale fin tubercles!) isnt actually very sharp at all, the fin thckens pretty quickly so not a razor edge

But they do look a bit scary

Reminds me of this mobile phone case (which i may or may not have...)

True that but your phone case Statement is very much like a political statement, is the election run up challenging you!

Politicians who profess to Surfing are often Good at cutbacks, Duck dive the heavy stuff, most are paddling like crazy at the moment!
