bummers brah

so i took out my first pair of new fins yesterday on my fish, and they felt awesome. super loose feeling, but still some control. these were the small black ones i'd taken off a shortboard i found in an alley, and converted them to fit in my fin boxes. Well it turns out i didn't do that well of a job converting them to fit. when i got out i notice one of them felt a bit loose and wobbly. i figured one thing, but then when i took it out, i realized that hte base that i molded onto the fin had seperated from the fin. shit. then i took out the other fin, which still felt tight, and realized the same thing had happened to it! shit. at least they didn't fall out in the water cuz they would have sank. well, now i gotta figure out how to get more glass and resin around the sides of the base as that seemed to be the weak spot. you probably don't care about this failure, so sorry if you read this...


they look fine right?
nope, this happened... not enough resin and glass along the sides i think.

finished these guys adn got them back in. these were my original fins i had on the board, now just converted to fit in the boxes. hope they stay in! they'll float if they do fall out at least, but then you gotta find em!
