Out of interest, Does anyone out there love these fins, but keep breaking the right (if your looking at the bottom of the board from the tail) fin??? I have many Right fins (i.e. I keep breaking the Left one), and am need of Left ones??

Cheers,

JB

I've been using the full glass versions for years on shorty fish and SUP and never broken one.

River, that's the same one I have 5 of, but thanks.

Lacey, I love the MR-TX Glass flex fins, they feel sooooo good, but yes you are right, I agree they are not designed to handle SUP. however, as I go back to using other fin combo's I miss my MR-TX set up with G100 Trailer.

BTW, I am not as impressed with the MR-TX Performance core.

OMC,

I use the same on my fish(s) and they last longer, but have still broken some. I am not as impressed with the full glass version.

It seems my back hand bottom turn folds them, both on shortboard and SUP. Probably more a technique thing. Research is now on to find my new favorite fin combo.

Hi Riverider, I could really do with that fin, mine just broke. Any chance you could post it to Perth? I can send you some cash via Paypal.
Or maybe JB, if you also have a few spare.

I just broke my'n when it hit the sand coming in, not so cool :-)
