Hi Everybody,
Of course I feel pretty stupid about this and I think it´s pretty bad, but I´m not sure HOW bad it is, so I would like to hear your opinion! This is only my 3rd board and it just reminded me, that you can screw up with every step you make.
So it´s a 6.0 Fish and the space between my center fin and the tail on the stringer was pretty tight and on the top I tried to squeeze the leash plug in between my finplug and the boards end. You already know where this is going I guess! When I was done cutting the hole for my leash plug, I had a tiny hole through to the finplug hole and just cut through my stringer! Big Bummer! So I don´t think there is anything I can do, right!? But the question is, is the board thrashed or is it still rideable? And the two questions that come up in my head are: Was my center fin too far back anyway, I was told it´s measured from the imagenary line between the two tails tips!? And where do you place the leash plug on a fish? I mean I´ve seen it on the side just in the foam, but heard it´s not recommended.
I hope I can still use it, since I´m going to France in 10 days!
