Re: quad fins 44.25 paipo

I have applied white glue to the paipo, pva, so I can now laminate with uv polyester without the eps falling out, careful to seal, a pore will ruin all the work of shape. this is a trick of the 70s

but I still do not want to give polyester or fiberglass

Re: quad fins 44.25 paipo

Today in waves that close with force I have had a very strong blow against the horned paipo, I've done enough damage, I'm fine.

has made me rethink the design and make this paipo without fins, I'm thinking of a smooth design but with channels that allow me to run the paced without slipping

Re: quad fins 44.25 paipo

http://www.mckeesurf.com/?page_id=267 for the position of the keels I followed the tables that mckee provides, adapted a bit to the paipo. I still need to define the toe in del fins but surely the front ones are 1/8 and the rear ones parallel not being what you mean, the kind of fins to ride? Is thi...

Re: quad fins 44.25 paipo

I've been looking at bodyboard photos, for my taste the most successful version in 2 or 4 fins.

I have modified the template. adjustments in the tail. a little narrower, I want a big push from the waves worse if something more turn goes from 95 to 92.5%

I think it starts to have good shape

Re: Everybody wants to

from that piece you can get a good paipo, mine are also made in eps.

Use epoxy and fiberglass to seal the tail, you have to leave all the EPS in a way that does not constrict the water. the eps does not rot, but it absorbs water since it is open cell.

encouragement and good luck

Re: quad fins 44.25 paipo

The idea of centering the rear ends is to work without the turbulence generated by the front ends, so they get the maximum performance

Has someone mounted fins like that? How did it work?
