The fins are balsa core with a carbon spar section
First glue together the balsa and carbon (carbon layup unidirectionals )
Then shape now lay out a sheet of plastic sized to cover three fins twice
Wet out two layers of 4 oz glass on the peel ply and plastic now lay the three balsa carbon fins on to it .Wet out another two layers and lay this over the top ,cover with peel ply now fold the plastic over
Put this in a small vac bag and leave overnight
Now cut around the fins with sissors and sand smooth then top coat
These fins are so light and stiff you wont belive it to alter the stiffness play with the glass lay up
The sockets and plugs that they fit in to are
plugs good quality ply (10 to 12 veneers) covered with balsa and glass for looks the sockets are just mouldings of the sockets
These are dead easy to make ,in two nights after work you can have a complete fin system
The board now has a do it your self system which gives you for and aft fin tuning and toe in adjustment
The total weight of the board with fins is 2.75kgs Im happy with that and looking forward to the next one
