alright so this season im going to pull the fins out of my old LF element and just use that as a trashy board.... hit up the sliders and hopefully there'll be a kicker in action as well.

but when I take the fins out its going to expose the foam inside where the screws where.
should I try fill the holes with something or just not give a ****?? haha

thanks

its not a problem.. at least not on the three boards I ride finless - caution best and hardcore.

you could always use my patented hi-tech solution: put stickers or tape over the fin holes on both sides of the deck - stops water squirting through the holes and into your face.

OR melt some candle wax over it... I rode my element finless a couple of times... the jetstream of water really isnt an issue.

How do you like your 134? I quite like the cab custom 128... it was a sick board for straps.

the 134 element is loads of fun in flat water.... glassy at that. but otherwise the board is a little stiff.... so I love riding my custom at the beach. just copes with chop and waves so well
