I went a little crazy some would say I'm crazy all the time,however I've found myself with a couple of fins that need to go one is a new Thomas Bex model from Alkin its red one side and black on the other new never been fitted to a board the other is a Tappy Deus.Let me know if your interested.

I purchased the Tappy for my old nose rider and would look terrible in my current nr used once.

The Alkin was a online purchase which also does not suite current board.

Those peeps did a brilliant job with the 'Deus' name, they changed the usual meaning of 'Deus ex Machina' but in a good way. Kind of nauseating recycling of the 70's though... I wished for it for a long time but now I see it it's pretty stale. Nevertheless a necessary antidote to the WCT.

The usual agricultural foiling with huge flat area is visible in the red fin very clearly.

Ride report from John in Australia:

"Dear Roy,

It is with joy and gratitude that I write to tell you about how well the Warp Drive quad fin setup performed yesterday afternoon, riding 4-6 foot reef break walls.

The board really flew; there was a complete absence of turbulence sensed beneath my feet; and yet the hold was perfect. Turning also occurred on a shorter radius.

What remarkable fins!"

No thanks, and with over a hundred different fins available the cost of moulds would be horrendous.

I might have a crack at moulding some glass versions at home though.
