I remember buying this Fin Works for a reduced price. Since I own both fins I've described, my questions are a bit academic. I haven't sailed with both fins enough to actually remember a difference. Since I do own more modern boards, I will be sailing less with this board and don't expect to actually optain any real experience with changing the fins. However, pre-season I spent a good deal of time finely tuning them both. You do seem to verify that it was time well spent as they are good product. If it doesn't serve me, I expect it will serve someone else.
Seeing as though you feel the need to message me personally, and abuse me, because I questioned you in a public forum. You were annoyed and said that you were just asking valid questions. OK lets do this in public. Brucie, what the hell is the above? A question? No. An opinion? No. Useless drivel? Yes!!! Bingo, we have a winner.
You tuned your boards and fins in the "preseason". What did you do, gym time and run a few laps with them? Give it a rest!
Then your first original question was : Basically... you bought a fin. It looked almost the same as an old one but "modernised" (whatever that is). You are somewhat suprised that it also fits the old board WOW well bvgger me, what a revelation!!!! Then you ask us what we all think of changes in fin design over the last 15 years.
Is it at all suprising that when the above is posted by somebody who has about 30 pseudonyms (look that one up in the dictionary) ... half of Australia tells you to p!ss off
Oh, yeah, the other part..... You bought a fin in a shop in Massachusetts and now the shop is no longer open. An Australian once visited that shop. Rivetting Brucie. Keep it up.
