Try the board run bloke.

If he cant fit a 12 ftr.

Try surfcargo or surf freight.

Just talking to boardrun on FB. Doing a run the week of the 19th which suits me.

Otherwise seller also recommended surf freight

Nick from surf freight is a champ

thanks guys. Looks like I can get it on the next BoardRun (19th). Can't wait to take it out.

will let you know how I go :-)

thanks for all the support and comments too. Wonderful group of guys so far :-)

Ouch

I'de just go with a 10 inch fin at first mate,something like this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Dorsal-Signature-Series-Longboard-SUP-Surfboard-Surf-Fin-Red-10-inch-/331806495742?hash=item4d413553fe:g:W84AAOSwJ7RYSca0
I bought the 9inch one the other day looks ok,got a bit of flex in it,but haven't tested it yet!..
After you get used to the board you can put any other type fin you like!...

Cool bet ya can't wait till it gets there
Yeah that fin looks ok,I'de go the 10 inch one if you like em,if you get up towards the nose at least you'll have some of the fin in the water,it's a big board you bought

I have a Shapers Dolphin Fin and it really is a great fin. Hands down my fave. In the future if you are looking for something nice but not crazy expensive check out the Shapers fin. You wont be disappointed.

Great thanks for the info.

Did the ebay thing today...

But will remember the places you mentioned

Yep Dion is good as well. Very good value.

Looks good Herbie.
Hope to see you at Plomer over Xmas. I'll be the useless old fart enjoying himself.
Camp is already packed!

Just a matter of looking around till you find something. Ebay, Gumtree ar4e good if your trying to find something you like..
As for new. Shapers are always good and the Dion fins the boys put up are great fins at a great price..

shapers.com.au/box-fins-1/


Or you can go the top of the line jobs from Alkali, Soar, Captain fin, McTavish. Usually hand made.

Even surfstitch is ok when they have a sale on... The TCSS ones are pretty nice fins.


Or the FCS basic ones are pretty cheap all the time.

Personally. I'd be going for the biggest one you can find..



Maybe something like this 10.25 Tyler warren or one of the 11" ones from Shapers.

Nice work mate , you lucky bastard - raise my glass to you champion

thanks. This will be the first relaxing break I have had in quite some time. Can't think of a better way to spend it than surfing and drinking
