Any local (brevard) shops carry single fins for a shortboard?

I ran a Greenough 4a 8 inch and it was a great fin for a shortboard single.  I have a 8.5" volan flex fin by Lovelace now and it works really well too.

Pander, when was the last time you had employees, store rental, inventory, workman's comp, liability. if you want to give away inventory start "Panders surf give-a-way. Rick Carroll, Longboard House, to name a few, pay bills you don't dream about. You can support ebay or Craigs list, but the shop owners and local surfboard shapers would like to support their families.

 Funzy, I hope you made that response up all by yourself. Great knee jerk response.

Hey Burry, it looks like just a regular surfboard (balsa bill definition)

fin box that was used on both long and short boards back in the day.

I checked LB house, nice selection of LB fins, some that might work.

Will look at Core today.

Thanks!

Get this bunny a carrot before he bites someone else!

BTW alibaba has way better prices than ebay or craiglist...7-9$ per fin whoop!

I didn't forget about you dingpatch!

Love your fins!

This is kind of an experiment right now, 

may need a fin in the future though.

I haven't seen too many locally shaped surfboards at LBH lately...

Walk in the back door with your eyes open and to the left, and you see a few straight away.

 

Sorry for continuing the derail.

Rusty Flex fin may work well...tail may play a factor in what will work best...
