tail fin broken
Question
I have a Bic Electric Rock board (265cm 102 lt) and recently the tail fin broke.
As the board is quite old I'm having difficulty finding a replacement. The
board is still in great condition and I love it! Any ideas where I might find a
tail fin for this board? Thanks in advance from New York!
Best wishes.
Julian.
Answer
Hey Julien,
There are plenty of online shops that carry fins for your board. You are looking for a particular type of fin and it will be labled by the type of fin box you have. There are 4 types that will work; A-box, US box, Chinook, and European. European will have one or two tabs on the top of the fin that would have to be trimmed down. You can choose any type of fin, race, freestyle, wave, etc., just be sure the box area looks like this one.

Go here to shops and schools for a ton of links to shops; http://windsurfingmag.com/
You can also find used fins on ebay.
Hope this helps.
