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...

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.

The confirmation bias could be you two thinking we can’t tell the difference.

(I don’t know, as I said, I haven’t swapped out same template with different constructions)

Fishing as usual.

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...

Dollars on the line

I don’t think I’ve ever surfed with stitches still in.
I heard a bloke with a cut got sepsis surfing in Lennox recently.

Bit of a wait but.

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.

I have a good interspecies relationship with them.

Yeh I got a few dirty brown bombs on the 7’1 Gunther

As good as it gets on the NB's.

Did you surf?

I am still tempted by this as a step up.
Looks so good but when you’re watching Parko and Jai G it might be a little deceiving.

And the short surfs like it’s longer too with the straight section in the mid part of the outline.

Reckon it’s worth taking an inch off the fish.
I wouldn’t want mine any longer.
