Ok here we go:
Fronts 13.5, off rail 1.25, toe 1/8, cant 7…you want faster, do 5, you want turn do 8
Rears 5.5, off rail 2, toe 1/8, cant 5
Center 4.5

Home made fins 25 layers of 6 oz glass, red resin tint 249 lam resin. Put down sheet glass with mold release agent ( like car wax) lam it up, squeegie, or hard roller. Cut fins out. I think these are close to FCS G7, rear trailer is slight smaller. I’m a bigger guy so I like big fins, big boards

Thanks.
Strange question but, Any idea how flex tolerant the finish is?

Since its a 2 pack it catalyzed, it pretty durable. For flexibility, I’ve never had it check off a properly sanded base layer…but never done a flex test on wood to thin plastic.
