F/Glass fins for fin box

austo · Post by **austo** » Sun Jul 06, 2008 2:11 am

Does any one in Oz know anybody that stocks "off the shelf" firbreglass fins for the old school finboxes. All I can seem to find for these here in W.A are big mal fins or the old multifin system made of plastic. I could get some made up but I thought I would try here first. I'm looking for something close to the FCS M7.

Here in the USA, Rainbow Fins in La Selva Beach, California are the go-to guys for fins.

Hi austo,a better alternative to this is buying the FCS finbox adaptor,
that way you can try out any fcs fin u like.

around $28.00 a pop.

Try giving Mike Cundith, MC surf designs a call on 02 6685 8778 he's at Byron Bay, had a great chat with him at easter and he told me about someone who custom made fibreglass fins on the mid N.S.W coast but I can't remember who it was. Mikes a great guy and I' sure he can help you

Not exactly on subject but Freeline in Santa Cruz has a new stock of FCS - I've never seen so many sets of fins in a retail shop. John also has a new stock of KB deck pads in the shop.

Also, a few new KBs on the rack including a 5'10" fish with keel fins and John's fakeout wood grain finish.
