Getting good service in this day and age should be expected but unfortunately some folk don't get it!


Sunday night after speaking with Jackson Close he mentioned fins so I took his advice and ordered online from Shapers Fins.

This morning delivered to my door,fantastic service Shapers.

I must admit and Mac will love this, McTavish were very good to deal with. Very professional and articulate I must say.

Just had a board delivered from Nossa to Freshwater in Sydney for $50 door to door one day early. Amazing stuff. Give John a call if you need a delivery / pick up on the east coast. Nice fella. Easy to deal with and clearly super efficient

+1 Shapers are good blokes...I ordered a 2 + 1 set from their website one night. Bloke called me the next day to apologise they were out of stock & asked if I wanted something else. I was like damn I'd been thinking about what set I wanted for my new board for 2 weeks & told him I was really keen on that 5.5 inch that was in the set. The 6" performance set looked good too, but was excited about the 5.5 inch set (diff construction) Turned out they had that fin (5.5) in stock but not the matching sides, but the Asher Pacey's were very similar & offered me that plus the 6" performance centre. Order arrived shortly after with 2 sets of fins...good blokes

They are good, lots of drive.
I ended up using them in the sides and a smaller center fin ..
Think Chrispy may have recommended it.

I agree and have been known to say it to them.....I do know they have been working with some shapers and surfers and testing some manufacturing lay up for the new range....so Im looking forward to it.
