With the outrageous cost of fins from some dealers ($25 fro one fin?!!) , I thought this might be a good alternative.

I've used these fins on several boards that I have made. They work fine if you need a cheap replacement but are no substitute for a nice, smooth, shapely fiberglass or carbon fin. These are injection moulded and have slight irregularities and a rough finish. On the good side, they won't break and most of us would never feel the difference.

Uhhh...enough computers...wind is starting to kick and clouds are breaking up in HR. Bald eagle omlettes anyone?

WOW, that aussie stuff is cheap!! I order a set of fins and even picked up a double board bag.

$2.50 a fin! No more crying over lost fins.
