Just a word to Wolfgang here.
Hope that you have a signed contract with Select for manufacture of your fins.
Your work should put you in the Hall of Fame with Jim Drake, not with your fins ripped off you.
Who would have thought that a speed fin and a weed fin could be the same?
I am thinking of the Swiss Swoard extreme snowboard which had a manufacture difficulty.
It is now finally made Nidecker and costs much less.
Jim Drake is for me one of the biggest piece of my life. In August 40 years only fun on the water. I am only a little piece from him, for me is it only fun.I am 68
years old or young.To work with factories,thats not my idea, you give your good
name. I try to find things over fins and the way is good. Wolfgang
Hallo Kleef! I designed and worked all it alone, at first prototypes in G 10 and
than the moulds for the carbon fins. Carbon fins only in 100% carbon and for
high speed sometimes a little ceramic in. All it is worked by hand, no computer
or big machines. 3 factories can work my fins. I get some Euro licence.
I work sometimes out such G10 fins new prototypes. My Duo Weedfins work I
in 24 28 32 cm , The 40cm worked I 2-3cm wider. On Saturday saw I in
Düsseldorf the weedfins from Select, ecactly my outline and cut out, not in G10.
They are in glass, black and polyester? Made in India. May be that I buy a 40cm
work concaves in and than I have a new Prototype for my 40cm Duo Wedfin.
I buy my own Wave Weedfins from one of the 3 factories, work Twinserfins for
Weed between 12-16cm. In winter they buy no fins, so have I to wait. Or I work
they in carbon. Wolfgang
