Didn't it deliver though?
What a crazy run of swell off that low.

Does anyone in the Sydney area know of any shops with Demo FCS fins for my new Potatonator?

yup cuttle sure did, and have had a busted rib for all of it,,,,spewin, sweet p has been grounded, hopefully some more lows before we return to summer slop

Goanna, I demoed a Potatonator with Large Simon Anderson Quad fins. They felt so right for that board. Big enough to create tons of drive and upright enough to make pivoty turns. I havent got the coin yet for a new Potatonator but if you like the Simon Quad fins and want a set that are in perfect nick then let me know. I highly recommend you try that set before you buy anything else.

Thanks for the feedback Fan - just curious, what size potatonator was it and how much do you weigh?

If anyone was likely to demo fins I reckon that'd be Dripping Wet or Aloha at Manly, or Jacksons down your way. I don't know if they do or dont though - worth a phone call at least.

It was a 5'10 and I weigh 85kgs and am 41 turning 42. I was riding a 5'10 Spit before that but figure I want extra foam for the small stuff. Hope that helps.

Thanks Fan - I am 86kg and 43. I have the 5'8" Potatonator - what are your thoughts with the large Simon's for that board?

Hey mate..I demoed a 5'8 and it was great but I think the 5'10 is more my size for the small waves I want to surf it in..I only want it for knee to waist high. After that I will use other boards. I just cant find anyone that has a 5'10 PN to demo....but in the 5'8 it felt right with those fins in....I dont think I have the coin but...been looking at my quiver for boards that I may sell to fund one...just want to know it compares with the SP. How do you find the SP v the PN?
