Re: Where did you surf today ?

Short window for lunchtime Dbah. Northerly was getting up. Rip along the wall took me straight out to the shallow bank that was the biggest pain in the arse to penetrate the last 15m. Finally out.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

These were the fins I first upgraded to from plastics. Big improvement. (When I later used them in another board that had plastics in them) Not sure the exact construction of them. I bought them new and put them in a 6’2 bushman I bought from RCJ’s quiver. Cost $99 which was a lot at the time - arou...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Actually I tell a lie, in a mate's board we both tried fcs2 accelerator mediums in neo glass and performance core and both much preferred the PCs.
But I'd love to test my bias one day with a blind test.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

I notice big differences changing out fin templates even if they only look subtle. Or things like putting a slightly smaller rear fin in. But I've never tried a honeycomb and a fibreglass in the same template/foil on the same board so I'm not sure if I could tell or not. A few in the last couple yea...

Re: Injuries Blog

Re: Just general surfing stuff

FCS bringing out a few more classic templates (like MF, AM) in fibreglass and marketing it like it’s a new breakthrough after years of telling everyone how good honeycomb, carbon, and hollow fins are.
