One of the fins fill out of my 138 Hammer today, looking for someone who might have one lying around or know where I could find one or get a copy machined. I've shaped many fins by hand in the past, would prefer to get it done on a CNC mill these days!
The original fins are Airush's own brand Code 60s (60mm), big things that track on a wave. They're single screw, with two locating pins, one either side of the screw. I ride asymmetric fin setups on other twintips/mutants, bigger at the back for wave riding, so I'm not bothered if they're not an exact match. circa 2007 I think (but I still like the board).
cheers
Hi Pete2
I probably have it but need to see some pictures from another fin you have to make sure I have the correct one.
Just post it here and I'll send you a PM if I have it.
thanks

Hi Christian,
This is what the originals look like, they're 60mm deep, closest thing I can find is www.kspsports.com/en/product/twin-tip-fins-57cm/, but they want 150 euros shipping. Turns out the two locating pins are 38mm CC apart, and are in solid board so I can drill them through and fit any current 2 bolt fin with a 38mm pattern I think.
cheers,
Pete
Hi Pete,
I have lots of fins with that mounting system but they are all very small in depth. However, I found one that is 65mm deep that I believe would work (see pictures below).
I see you contacted Airush international, they can't help you with this unfortunately.
Last year, I donated lots of older fins and Mark_Australia from this forum took some.

Mark runs a surfboard repair business in Geraldton. He might be able to help you find a matching fin or help you make one custom.

If you wish to get that 65mm fin I have, send me a PM
Thanks
