Can't remember the fin names offhand, but is this the standard comes-with-PA fin or did you upgrade to the longest fins?

I have the v2 fins with the ST Turbofin - the long gray kind.

Looking closer today, it seems like the pin, circle ring, and adjust screw all all in place and the rubber must have ripped. Mast looks good and I should be able to just slide the new one on.

Also just saw on YouTube that there is a new Mirage Drive come out that will shift into reverse?!? That could come in handy when trying to judge the surf window coming in. Also squeezing back out of kelp pockets.

Simple
Launch at S Ponto by the jetty
Park on sand no stones get a buddy or wheels straight to launch.

Coming in pick and choose I've dodged tourists many times easy landing even on big days nice strong push straight waves.

Paddle S to Beacons good structure and kelp. Avoid party boats N going for sandbass to fill sacks.

Whole reason through MLPA fiasco I never brought up Pontos.

It's entertaining to watch the beach launches here in north county.

Thought you might have the smaller ST fins like I have lying around (upgraded "my wife's" Outback so they're just lying around. )
