Great tip with fixing K4 fins with car bumper filler. I did it and it worked. Saying that after a year of frequent sailing! 🤙

[@windsurfer]

Great!

I like very much that the intermediate state is shown. I am usually very disappointed when I see this during my work, because it gives the impression it's never going to look good. So there's hope! Thank you very much! (Brutal to hack into the fin like Mark did, haha!)

Hey, I like your videos, especially because you keep it as simple as possible. That's great for urgently needed repairs.
What would you recommend for fixing fins at home? Is Resin with fibres strong enough?

[@windsurfer]

Mark who gave all the advice is not around but I hope all your answers are in the video!

Time to give some fins a repair job now I know what to use. Thanks.

When in Gerroa, take your damaged fin to One Knot. He loves repairing fins🤣

[@windsurfer]

Ha - Ive done that dodgy repair where you fill the split layers with Superglue and end up with a mutant fin.
Its my best fin.

[@windsurfer]

Haha yup can relate 👍

[@bluetommy77]

does the metal reinforced resin start to rust after some time?

[@windsurfer]

Sorry don’t know the answer!

[@marcosgallodgp]

Thanks for the video! could you make one on boards?

[@windsurfer]

On boards? There’s a few videos on my channel already.

[@marcosgallodgp]

@@windsurfer saw that thanks!

My fin is worn down from users beach starting in water too shallow and grinding the fin in the sand, so it's not dinged, just blunted asymmetrically across the end. Would it work to sand starting with 180 grit and working up to 400 grit, and then coat the end with a thin layer of resin? Any particular resin you would recommend?

[@windsurfer]

Just sand the fin down with your sandpapers. You won’t need to coat the fin with resin.👍
