I love that 2nd fin, is that glitter? Please do explain

 

As usual, good stuff Ben.

Man, I love those leopard print fins!

Keep it up my itchy friend.

Cheers.

Nice one Ben, volan looks good

Hey Ben, ever thought of devoting yourself to a fin concept or a theory and exploring it ? Not like a monk or anything,  just give 6 months to working thru an idea to see where it goes.

Frinstance, I’m not doing flat / single plane fins anymore but focusing on fins with extended dimensions like length and width.

Maybe put your devotion and skills to new areas…

hi tenderloin !

 

  yep , I put ‘sparkle’ in the middle 2 layers of a 38 layer panel , so I could double foil them…

  cheers Barry !

 

  having a break today , as , after tabbing 40 yesterday , I got the wrist itch , today …

 

cheers Noe !

 

  yep , its a tiny amount of green tint in the 'pseudo volan’one .

 

 I can’t wait to do a panel with that 'mesh type 'stuff that you sent , cheers !  As well as the lerverly linen too, of course ! Love your boards , keep posting photos , please ?!  Have you been getting some good waves on em , lately ??

 

Hiya Brett !

 

  I guess the numerous versions of the 'hockey stick fins’over the last three years , are the closest to what you mentioned . A few friends have tested the various versions , as documented on this site occassionally . And , naturally , I also intend to !

 

The next priority is a finbox thickness , multi-pigmented fin that my brother wants , so …  once 50 layers or so of 8 x 10 " 6oz [preferably!] offcuts have been accumulated …

 

  …to be continued …

 

  but , that said ,

 

I AM also keen to "have a go " at attempting to reproduce an fcs version [or TWO ! ,  for side fins ? ] of this , an old erle pedersen creation , that Simon has here …
