I saw a shark fin!








Little bit slow in here this weekend!

Cronulla

^Agree.
Fark that's a nice fin though Mac!
It has little tiny shatters on the trailing edge now... Too much fun laying it into the bottom turns!

Yes, I thought things were a bit dull of late.

I started a new board transport project today and I was going to take a bunch of pics and write it up for your viewing pleasure, unfortunately, I had to shelve the idea as a favour for a friend.

I bumped into him today and explained my idea to him and he said he'd been trying to think of how to do that for a while and my idea had never occurred to him even though it was he simplest idea possible. He'd like to see it before I told anyone else.

Maybe next weekend if I can get it finished, It will see the end of my ladder type racks if it works.

crap w/e here.....although we have had a rain event which was pretty exciting as we have not had any rain for months....rain tank still needs a bit more before it will be fill Had a small crappy surf Sat morning and that was it. Today we have had the devil wind - the SE howling in. Watched a few kites out the front on the lake getting into it. I spent most of the day working and then sneaked a few hours in the garage doing some sanding. Running out of time to get all my projects done before I head off. SB has been slow of late......lets fire it up !

Looking forward to seeing your new roof contraption ob !!!

Obct - sound awesome!

Mac - it's one of the finest fins going around... a McT!

Ted - crap surf weekend here too! Better for kites and windsurfing, but I took my dirt bike out both days....

F#@k me, that Blue Fin looks nice, with the blue sky, and the water droplets! ^^^^^


With a tiny Bluebird on the fin too!

speaking of fins I have spent a fair bit of time the last week learning how to make fins !!! I am going to give it a go if I get the time shortly. Looking forward to it...... I want a nose riding fin - any ideas for shape feel free to post them !

Nose riding fin - just try a hatchet fin, with a blunt (as in square) leading edge!
Rounded Square leading edge!? That's something that hasn't been experimented enough with!
